Popis: People in Central Europe spend most of their time in private dwellings, offices, education centres or other public buildings. In these indoor places, they are exposed to a variety of gaseous or particulate pollutants that potentially exert adverse health effects. This work compiles current fields of action that are discussed in the public, among expert panels, and in the scientific community. These address ventilation in buildings, the impact of building product emissions and particulate matter sources on indoor air quality, the detection and prevention of mould as well as the assessment of indoor air quality using guidance values and the determination of the internal exposure by human biomonitoring. Indoor air quality appears as a dynamic field of action that has become more complex due to the interaction between new chemicals introduced into the indoor environment through a variety of products and the observed reduction of ventilation rates. Implications for human health have thus become less predictable.
