| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Effects of prenatal and early-life exposure to air pollution on allergy were evaluated. Fine (PM2.5) and coarse (PM10-2.5) particles were collected inside and outside 287 homes of the children at age of 1.5 and 3 years old, and endotoxin concentrations in particle were measured. Indoor endotoxin concentrations in PM2.5 and PM10-2.5 significantly correlated with outdoor concentrations in each fraction and endotoxin levels in dust samples collected from mattress. Indoor endotoxin concentrations in both fractions were lower in homes that used air purifiers.
Fractional concentrations of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) were higher in mothers with a history of allergy and subjects who used unvented heaters. FeNO decreased in relation to an increase in ambient concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, although FeNO was not correlated with indoor and outdoor endotoxin concentrations.
In addition, a spatiotemporal land use random forest model was developed in order to estimate exposure to air pollutants.
