Iso- and Anteiso-Alkanes:  Specific Tracers of Environmental Tobacco Smoke in Indoor and Outdoor Particle-Size Distributed Urban Aerosols

Iso- and Anteiso-Alkanes:  Specific Tracers of Environmental Tobacco Smoke in Indoor and Outdoor Particle-Size Distributed Urban Aerosols

Branched iso- and anteiso-alkanes were conjointly used, with n-alkanes and PAHs, as specific molecular markers to trace environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) in particle-sized aerosols collected in the indoor and outdoor urban atmosphere. GC/MS and GC-FID were used for the de termination of iso-, anteis...

Zusammenfassung:Branched iso- and anteiso-alkanes were conjointly used, with n-alkanes and PAHs, as specific molecular markers to trace environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) in particle-sized aerosols collected in the indoor and outdoor urban atmosphere. GC/MS and GC-FID were used for the de termination of iso-, anteiso-, and n-alkanes and PAHs. The branched alkanes (ranging from C29 to C33) were detected only in particles in the accumulation range mode (
