Improvement of GPS-attached Pocket PM2.5 Measuring Device for Personal Exposure Assessment.

Assessment of personal exposure to particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or 2.5 µm (PM2.5) is necessary to study the association between PM exposure and health risk.

Preliminary monitoring of concentration of particulate matter (PM) in seven townships of Yangon City, Myanmar.

Background: Airborne particulate pollution is more critical in the developing world than in the developed countries in which industrialization and urbanization are rapidly increased. Yangon, a second capital of Myanmar, is a highly congested and densely populated city. Yet, there is limited study which assesses particulate matter (PM) in Yangon currently.
