mainstream smoke. A ratio of greater than 1.0 means the
constituent is found in higher concentrations in sidestream smoke
than mainstream smoke. A number of the constituents listed are
carcinogens or suspected carcinogens according to the
International Agency for Research on Cancer.
I
Measurement of ETS
The large number of constituents in ETS make it impossible
to assess overall exposure based on measurement of each one.
Instead most researchers have measured one or more compounds and
have used those to estimate the total exposure to ETS. Changes
in ETS composition over time and exposure conditions limit the
accuracy of this method.
This chapter will discuss in detail only a few of the
possible measures of ETS: particles, nicotine, cadmium and
nitrosamine. Most of the data presented will be from studies
involving cigarette smoke since this is a major source of indoor
ETS. Little work has been done on pipe or cigar smoke.
Exposures to Environmental Tobacco Smoke
According to the U.S. Department of Commerce (1985) about 30%
of adults in the U.S. are smokers. 404 of homes nationwide have
at least one smoker. In a survey of over 10,000 children in six
U.S. cities, the percentage of children living with one or more
smoking adults varied from a low of 604 to a high of 75% (Ferris
et al,. 1979). Lebowitz and Burrows (1976) reported 544 of
children in a study in Tucson had at least one smoker in the
home. These data indicate that the potential for exposure to ETS
in the home is greater than that inferred from national
statistics.
Smoking between different demographic groups can vary widely
and this will modify the exposure of nonsmokers to ETS. Overall
ETS exposure will depend on the proximity of an individual to the
source of smoke. Patterns of smoking will be influenced by time,
location and type of activity.
MICROENVIRONMENTAL MEASUREMENTS OF CONCENTRATIONS
Concentrations of Particles and ETS
Numerous studies have been conducted using respirable
suspended particulates (RSP) as markers for ETS. Both continuous
and integrated measurements methods have been used. Although RSP
is not specific for the presence of smokers in the home and other
indoor locations, the.number of cigarettes smoked have shown to
correlate well with RSP.

the lungs.
Particles greater than 2.5 um in diameter, or coarse
particles, are usually formed by mechanical processes like
grinding, crushing and abrasion. At least 75% of the silicon,
calcium and iron, elements commonly found in soil, appear in this
size fraction (Dzubay and Stevens, 1975). Particles from 2.5-10
um can be inhaled and can become deposited in the
tracheobronchial regions.
Environmental Tobacco Smoke
Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) is a mixture of exhaled
mainstream smoke and sidestream.smoke. Sidestream smoke is the
smoke that is formed by smoldering between puffs, of a tobacco
product and is the major source of ETS. The complex mixture that
the smoker inhales with each puff of a cigarette, cigar or pipe
is called mainstream smoke. The portion of mainstream smoke that
the smoker inhales with each puff of a cigarette, cigar, or pipe
is called mainstream smoke. The portion of mainstream smoke that
the smoker exhales and the small amount of vapor diffusing
through the wrapping of the cigar or cigarette add little to ETS.
ETS consists of fresh and aged sidestream and mainstream
smoke. The particle sizes which make up ETS vary due to
coagulation (the process where two or more particles collide and
combine to form a larger particle), evaporation, and the adhesion
of particles to surfaces. The size distribution of particles is
also affected by air dilution, relative humidity and temperature.
Under controlled conditions, several researchers have measured
the particle size distribution of sidestream smoke (Keith and
Derrick, 1960; Porstendorger and Schraub, 1972; Hiller et al.,
1982: Leaderer et al., 1984, Ingebrethsen and Sears, 1986).
Based on these studies, the mass median diameter of sidestream
smoke can be estimated to be between 0.2 um and 0.4 um. The mass
median diameter is the diameter which divides the mass
distribution in half, ie: one half of the mass is contributed by
particles larger than this diameter and one half by particles
smaller.
Composition of ETS
Environmental tobacco smoke is made up of several thousand
different chemical compounds. These compounds may be in the
gaseous or solid phase or both. The chemical composition of
sidestream smoke differs from that of mainstream smoke. Over
2,000 compounds have been measured in sidestream and mainstream
smoke. Some of the constituents in the mainstream smoke of
nonfilter cigarettes are listed in Table 3. Also given are
ratios of these substances in sidestream smoke compared to

et al. (1987). The rest of their time is usually spent in the
livingroom, kitchen or in travel as illustrated in Figure 1.
There are some problems with determining total exposure based
on time-activity patterns. It is not clear how well individual
activity allocation can be generalized from overall population
estimates or how concentration levels are affected by varying
time and activity patterns. There also may be differences
between rooms within microenvironments but this is not well
understood.
Lebret (1985) examined the respirable suspended particulate
(RSP) levels in rooms while participants were smoking or within
one half hour of smoking. He found significant variation between
the livingroom kitchen and bedroom. Ju and Spengler (1981), who
studied 24-hour average concentrations of respirable
particulates, also found statistically significant variation
between some rooms although the absolute differences were
relatively small.
Monitoring
There are a number of different instruments available to
monitor air pollutants. Often the type of instrument used
depends on the exposure of interest. Immediate exposures are
most important when studying irritant and acute allergic
responses. For this type of exposure, instruments which take
short term or instantaneous readings are often used: the
piezobalance or nephelometer are both used to measure
particulates, the ecolyzer is used to measure carbon monoxide.
One advantage to these types of instruments is their ability to
detect peak pollutant levels.
. For acute effects such a upper or lower respiratory
infections, the exposures of interest range from hours to days.
For increased prevalence of even a lifetime. To measure these
exposures, integrated or time-averaging methods are used. These
methods include filters which are used to collect particles over
long time periods.
EXPOSURE TO AIRBORNE PARTICLES
Size Distribution and Composition of Particulates
The distribution of particulates is essentially trimodal with
peak diameters at approximately 0.02 um, 0.5 um and 10 um as
shown in Figure 2. The fine particle fraction, or <2.5 um, is
produced by condensation. At least 75% of the sulfur, zinc,
bromide and lead are found in this size range (Dzubay and
Stevens, 1975). Particles <2.5 um are very important for health
reasons since these particles can reach the alveolar regions on
66

et al. (1987) considered cadmium as a useful tracer for ETS.
They monitored twenty homes and one outdoor site for fine
particulates in Watertown, MA. Particles were analyzed for
elemental composition using x-ray fluorescence. At the outdoor
site and in homes without smokers, cadmium levels were below the
detectable limit. Indoor cadmium levels were below the
detectable limit. Indoor cadmium levels were highly correlated
with indoor fine particulate measurements.
Nitrosamines, some of which have been listed as animal
carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cencer,
have been studied in public facilities and homes (Brunnemann et
al., 1978). Using continuous measurements they found mean levels
of nitrosamines in public facilities which ranged from 0.01 to
0.24 ng/L. Both homes monitored had levels of less than 0.0005
ng/L.
Wallace et al. (1987) measured the personal exposure and
breath levels of benzene and other aromatics in 200 smokers and
322 nonsmokers in New Jersey and California. Benzene is listed
as a human carcinogen by the IARC (1986). They found a
significant increase in breath concentration with the number of
cigarettes smoked. Smokers were found to have up to 10 times the
breath concentration of benzene compared to nonsmokers.
Nonsmokers who reported smoke exposure at work showed elevated
levels for fall and winter but not for spring and summer. The
authors concluded that cigarettes were the major source of
benzene for about 50 million U.S. smokers.
No single constituent of ETS is sufficient to completely
characterize an individuals exposure to ETS. Research on ways to
relate these measurements to specific health effects continues to
be done. The most prudent course is to measure several of these
components in exposure studies. Markers specific to the class of
ETS components, or health outcome of interest could be utilized
in epidemiologic studies to enhance precision of the exposure.
Personal Exposures.
Personal monitoring studies have many of the same problems
that area monitoring has such as trying to measure ETS exposure
based on one or more markers. However, personal exposure
monitoring has the advantage of including spatial and temporal
dimensions to the measurements. It is also possible to use time
activity diaries to link exposure with location and activity.
The results of a personal monitoring study by McCarthy et al.
(1987) show that the exposure of children to RSP was much higher
than that of children from nonsmoking households. The average
personal RSP value increased from 29 µg/m3 for children from
nonsmoking families to 56 µg/m3 for children from smoking
families. The average personal nicotine concentration increased

EXPOSURES TO AIR POLLUTANTS

I
Microenvironments
Concentrations of air pollutants can and do vary depending on
location. outdoor pollutant levels may differ from indoor
levels. Different indoor locations like homes, schools or
workplace can also register varying pollutant levels. An
individual's total exposure to air pollutants therefore depends
on the time spent in each of these microenvironments and the
various concentrations of air pollutants.
Time Activity Patterns
The amount of time a person spends in different
microenvironments is influenced by age, sex, occupation, social
class and season. Letz et al. (1984) studied the time-activity
patterns of 332 residents of Roane county, Tennessee. The
results of study showed that these individuals spent 75% of their
time in the home. This was higher (84.9%) for housewives,
unemployed and retired persons. The group.spent 10.8% of the
time at work with occupational groups working between 21-24% of
their time. Of the remaining time: 8.5% was spent in public
places, 9% in travel and 2.8% in various other locations.
Quakenboss et al. (1982) studied the time allocation for 66
family members from 19 homes in Portage, WI. Individuals were
put into one of five general subgroups which are shown in Table
1. Despite wide variations, each group spent most of the time at
home. For all participants. total time spent indoors was 853.
More recently, Quakenboss and his colleagues analyzed time
activity data for over 300 individuals in the Portage, WI area.
Participants were categorized into three groups: workers,
nonworkers, and students. Activity data were collected from both
summer and winter seasons and are summarized in Table 2. Again
all groups spent the largest percentage of their time in the
home. Time spent outdoors decreased from summer to winter.
Infants, because they are essentially immobile, spend most of
their time in the bedroom according to a recent study by Harlos
65

Miesner et al. (1988) used both continuous and integrated
methods to monitor in five office buildings in metropolitan
Boston. Both filters and nephelometer were used to measure in 12
offices, one conference room and a designated smoking room of a
large nonsmoking office to 1200 µg/m3 in the designated smoking
room. Short-term nephelometer readings ranged from zero in a
nonsmoking office to 1200 pg/m3 in the same smoking room
mentioned above.
Particulate Concentration in Offices
Repace and Lowry (1980) measured particulate levels in various
indoor public facilities both in the absence and presence of
smoking. For nonsmoking locations such as restaurants,
libraries, a church, and a bakery, the mean indoor RSP level was
less than 60 µg/m3. Measurements taken in public facilities in
the presence of smoking are shown on Table 5. Measurements range
from 86µg/m3 for an eight minute measurement in a sandwich
restaurant by other researchers using continuous monitoring
methods to measure particulate levels in public facilities are
presented in Table 6.
Besides monitoring in offices, Miesner et al. (1988) also took
continuous and integrated RSP measurements in numerous public
facilities including: a library, museum, school, subway, bars and
restaurants. They found that for most public buildings where no
smoking was present the particulate levels were low, usually less
than 30 µg/m3. Levels in transportation facilities such as the
subway and bus stations were slightly higher with a mean
integrated measurement of 63 µg/m3. Higher concentrations were
found in smoking areas such as bars, restaurants and a public
smoking room with a mean integrated measurement of 79 µg/m3 and a
standard deviation of 44 µg/m3.
Concentration of Other Components of ETS
Numerous researchers have looked at other tracers for ETS.
Because of its high specificity for tobacco smoke and its
presence in high concentration nicotine is a promising choice.
McCarthy et al. (1987) also measured indoor nicotine levels in
smoking and nonsmoking homes. The home nicotine values ranged
from an average of 0.1 µg/m3 in the nonsmoking households to 4.2
µg/m3 in the smoking households. The presence of low nicotine
values in some of the nonsmoking households can be accounted for
by visitors to the home who were smokers.
A number of studies have used integrated readings to determine
nicotine levels in offices and public buildings. A selection of
these studies are presented in Table 7.
Cigarettes are also known to be a source of cadmium. Lebret
70

Spengler et al. (1981) measured 24-hour respirable particulate
levels in 55 homes in six U.S. cities. The mean monthly
concentration across cities is presented in Figure 3 with indoor
particulate levels are similar to the outdoor levels. Table 4
shows the respirable particulate levels in the homes as a
function of the number of smokers. The actual amount of smoking
in the home was not reported. The researchers concluded that the
major source of indoor particulates in smoking homes was
cigarette smoke. Each smoker in the home raised the mean
respirable particulate level by 20 µg/m3.
Further analysis of the data by Dockery and Spengler (1981)
showed that each cigarette smoked in the home increased the mean
respirable particulate levels by 0.88 µg/m3. In air conditioned
homes, the respirable particulate levels increased by 2.11 gg/m3
per cigarette per day. This increase was probably caused by
recirculation of indoor air which reduced the cigarette smoke
dilution. , _, . .
More recently Spengler and colleagues (1986) analyzed RSP data
from over 200 homes in Watertown, MA. Homes with smokers had RSP
concentrations of 30 to 35 gg/m3 higher than nonsmoking homes.
RSP concentration and the number of cigarettes smoked per week
were highly correlated. Models based on this data predict a
contribution of 0.77 µg/m3 per cigarette per day. This would
mean a pack of cigarettes would increase the indoor RSP
concentration by 15.5 µg/m3.
McCarthy et al. (1987) placed fixed monitors in homes for two
consecutive 24 hour sampling periods. The RSP measurement was
highly correlated with the consumption of cigarettes in the home.
The indoor RSP values for smoking households were consistently
higher than those for nonsmoking homes to 56 gg/m3 in smoking
homes.
Particulate Concentration in Offices
Using a piezobalance, Weber and Fischer (1980) monitored 44
workrooms at seven different companies in Switzerland. The
workrooms had varying levels of smoking. A number of samples
were taken in each room over a two day period. After subtracting
the particulate levels found in an unoccupied room, the mean
particulate level for the 492 samples taken was 133 µg/m3 with a
standard deviation of 130 µg/m3. The maximum concentration
measured was 962 µg/m3.
Quant et al. (1982) used a piezobalance, to monitor three
offices. The offices were divided into cubicles with half-wall
partitions and contained both smoking and nonsmoking areas.
offices were monitored continuously for one work week. Figure 4
shows the results of continuous monitoring in one of the offices.
For the three offices, the ten hour day averages ranged from
37µg/m3 to 89 µg/m3.
69

from 0,3 µg/m3 to 2.5µg/m3 for children_from nonsmoking and
smoking families respectively. A child's personal nicotine is
highly correlated with the consumption of cigarettes in the home
while the personal RSP was not. This implies that although there
are multiple sources of RSP, the majority of ETS exposure is from
the child's home.
I
Spengler et al. (1985) had 101 nonsmoking volunteers from
Kingston/Harriman, Tennessee wear personal respirable suspended
particulate monitors for 3 days. Nonsmokers were divided in two
groups: those who lived with a smoker and those who did not.
Outdoor and indoor particulate levels were taken for comparison.
Results showed that personal exposure was not correlated with
outdoor concentrations but that ETS significantly increased an
individuals personal concentration profile.
In Spengler and Tosteson (1981) 45 nonsmoking adults were
monitored for RSP for 18 days. They were also divided into two
groups: those exposed to ETS and those who were not. Area
monitors were also placed inside and outside. Personal exposure
was higher than both indoor and outdoor measurements. On average
the individual exposure was increased by 20 µg/m3 among those who
reported exposure to ETS.
cotinine is a major metabolite of nicotine. McCarthy et al
(1987) measured cotinine levels in the urine and saliva of 81
nonsmoking children. Nicotine levels in the air were also
monitored as was RSP. They found a high correlation between
personal nicotine levels and cotinine indicating a quantitative
relationship may exist. They did however, find high variability.
Coultas et al. (1987) measured cotinine in the saliva of 1360
nonsmoking children and adults. They found an increase with the
number of smokers in the home at all ages. However, household
variability was wide and even 304 of the nonsmokers living in a
no smoking home had detectable cotinine levels.
summary _
1. Environmental tobacco smoke is the primary contaminant
causing elevated RSP levels in enclosed spaces.
2. Environmental tobacco smoke can be a substantial contributor
to the level of indoor air pollution concentration of benzene,
acrolein, N-nitrosamine, pyrene and carbon monoxide.
3. Measured exposures to respirable suspended particulates are
higher for nonsmokers who report exposure to ETS.
