Abstract

A pilot field study was conducted to measure indoor and personal exposure to carbon monoxide (CO) levels using personal monitors from January to February in 1989. The principal objectives of the study was to design and evaluate the research protocol and the instrumentation performance for application to the conduct of a large-scale personal monitoring program. The mean CO concentrations in kitchen and in bedroom were 23.4 and 11.9 ppm, respectively, while mean concentration of personal CO exposure was 18.9 ppm. It was found that the mean CO concentrations in kitchen exceeded 20 ppm of the Korea ambient CO standard(8-hr average) not to be exceeded more than three times per year. The results suggest that indoor CO levels in Korean houses appear to be affected by use of coal briquette for heating any cooking.
