Özet

Ambient air samples (n = 89) were collected between May 2003 and May 2004 in Izmir, Turkey to investigate the gas/particle partitioning of formaldehyde (HCHO). Average gas-phase formaldehyde (HCHO) concentrations (7.3 +/- 6.5 mu g m(-3), average +/- SD) were within the range previously measured at different sites around the world. Particle-phase HCHO concentrations ranged between 3 and 65 ng m(-3) (average +/- SD, 18 +/- 12 ng m(-3)) and HCHO was primarily associated with gas phase (99.55%).
