“…In addition, Harrison et al (2010) indicated that relating health outcomes to measured particle mass concentrations can underestimate the public health impacts and emphasized that the regional lung dose, not pollutant exposure, probably drives health outcomes. Therefore, our findings over the contributions of particle sources to regional lung deposition for different particle metrics may help address the question of what is most important metric linked to health effects in epidemiological studies.…”

“…However, since most 66 studies have used PM 10 or PM 2.5 mass concentrations to investigate correlations with human health 67 outcomes it is likely that the health impacts of PM have been in most cases underestimated 68 (Harrison et al, 2010). Atmospheric aerosol is especially problematic to characterize because of its 69 complex and variable composition, wide size range and a broad spectrum of both natural and 70 Successful analysis of ATOFMS data requires fast and reliable processing and interpretation of the 80 huge amount of data generated.…”

“…The main objective of this work was focus on PM 10 and its bioaccumulations (microbial load) in Makkah during Hajj seasons 2016 (1437AH). This study concluded that the concentration of respirable particles (PM 10 ) and its water-soluble ions were much higher at site 2, site 1 than that at sites 3, 4 and 5.…”

“…The concentrations recorded in this study were lower than the daily mean limitation of PM 10 (340) in Saudi Arabia (PME, 1422). Emissions from road traffics, human activities, construction activities, re-suspension of dust particles and poor ventilations were considered to be the main reasons for the high concentrations of particulate matter (PM 10 -and SO 4 2-observed in particulate (PM 10 ). This may be attributable to the interaction of SO 2 and NOx and sharing the same source of emissions (road traffic).…”
