摘要: Abstract The total protein associated with bioaerosol particulate matter (PM) is generally measured as an all-inclusive indicator of airborne biological material, which may enhance the effects allergens, allergic and asthmatic responses. To investigate level seasonal variations loading, PM10 were collected in a metropolitan area Hefei, central China from June 2008 to February 2009 analyzed for mass, trace elements, water-soluble ions. concentration ranged 2.08 36.71 μg m−3 average 11.42 μg m−3. This was highest value reported so far literature. found have significant correlation air pollution index (API) mean visibility (VV), indicating potential influence anthropogenic sources and/or crustal sources. content displayed obvious variation respect weather conditions. In rainy season low, while dry foggy relatively high. A analysis revealed that relationship between ions K+ NO 3 − during 0.92 0.66 (P
