Health effects from particles may be associated with their mass, surface area, or number concentrations. Direct-reading instruments can be used to measure these concentrations. However, the response of an instrument will depend on the sensitivity of the instrument to different sizes of particles. The objective of this activity is to be able to predict the responses of various direct-reading instruments to different particle sources.
