25Research on the sources of indoor airborne chemicals has traditionally focused on outdoor air, 26 building materials, furnishings, and activities such as smoking, cooking and cleaning. Relatively 27 little research has examined the direct role of occupant emissions, even though this source 28 clearly contributes to indoor volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and influences indoor 29 chemistry. In this work, we quantify occupant-related gaseous VOC emissions in a university 30 classroom using a proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Time-resolved 31 concentrations of VOCs in room air and supply air were measured continuously during occupied 32 and unoccupied periods. The emission factor for each human-emitted VOC was determined by 33 dividing the occupant-associated source rate by the corresponding occupancy. Among the most 34 abundant species detected were compounds associated with personal care products. Also 35 prominent were human metabolic emissions, such as isoprene, methanol, acetone, and acetic 36 acid. Additional sources included human skin oil oxidation by ozone, producing compounds such 37 as 4-oxopentanal (4-OPA) and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one (6-MHO). By mass, human-emitted 38VOCs were the dominant source (57%) during occupied periods in a well-ventilated classroom, 39 with ventilation supply air the second most important (35%), and indoor non-occupant emissions 40 the least (8%). The total occupant-associated VOC emission factor was 6.3 mg h -1 per person. 41 42
