Surveillance of Indoor Air Concentration of Volatile Organic Compounds in Luxembourgish Households
Exposure to air pollution is a well-known health risk. For instance, volatile and very volatile organic compounds (VOCs and VVOCs) are known to cause respiratory, haematologic or immune diseases, and even cancer.
