Human skin oil is rich in ozone-reactive compounds, including squalene and unsaturated
acyl groups of free fatty acids, glycerols, and wax esters. Squalene and unsaturated acyl …

Humans spend most of their time indoors, where they are exposed to many volatile organic
compounds (VOCs). Exposure to indoor VOCs has been linked to adverse health effects …

Ozone concentrations tend to be substantially lower indoors than outdoors, largely because
of ozone reactions with indoor surfaces. When there are no indoor sources of ozone, a …

Ozone reactions on human body surfaces produce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that
influence indoor air quality. However, the dependence of VOC emissions on the ozone …

One strategy for mitigating the indoor transmission of airborne pathogens, including the
SARS-CoV-2 virus, is irradiation by germicidal UV light (GUV). A particularly promising …

While vehicle cabin environment significantly impacts human health, systematic studies on
this important microenvironment are lacking. Here, we conduct a 12-day field observation of …

Unsaturated triglycerides found in food and skin oils are reactive in ambient air. However,
the chemical fate of such compounds has not been well characterized in genuine indoor …

Multiphase chemistry occurs between chemicals in different atmospheric phases, typically
involving gas–solid and gas–liquid interactions. The importance of atmospheric multiphase …

Rapidly increasing urbanization in recent decades has elevated the subway as the primary
public transportation mode in metropolitan areas. Indoor air quality (IAQ) inside subways is …

Germicidal ultraviolet light (GUV) systems are designed to control airborne pathogen
transmission in buildings. However, it is important to acknowledge that certain conditions …
