Performance evaluation of radon active sensors and passive dosimeters at low and high radon concentrations
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has the potential to accumulate in buildings and over time, causes lung cancer in humans. Present methods for radon measurements are disparate, which pose challenges to benchmark radon concentrations and ...
Oxford2024Influence of Ventilation on Formation and Growth of 1-20 nm Particles via Ozone-Human Chemistry
Dusan Licina, Shen Yang, Marouane Merizak, Meixia Zhang
Ozone reaction with human surfaces is an important source of ultrafine particles indoors. However, 1-20 nm particles generated from ozone-human chemistry, which mark the first step of particle formation and growth, remain understudied. Ventilation and indo ...
Washington2024What is NExT? A new conceptual model for comfort, satisfaction, health, and well-being in buildings
Buildings are designed to respond to functional and regulatory needs, providing comfortable conditions to occupants, offering satisfactory environmental settings, minimising health risks, and enhancing individual and collective quality of life. Although th ...

Amer Chemical Soc2024Influence of outdoor air pollution on European residential ventilative cooling potential
Dusan Licina, Evangelos Belias
Residential ventilative cooling via natural ventilation is influenced by outdoor air pollution. However, relative to climate, outdoor air pollution is not comprehensively considered in determining the ventilative cooling potential of buildings. To assess t ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2023Human personal air pollution clouds in a naturally ventilated office during the COVID-19 pandemic
Dusan Licina, Shen Yang, Akila Muthalagu
Personal cloud, termed as the difference in air pollutant concentrations between breathing zone and room sites, represents the bias in approximating personal inhalation exposure that is linked to accuracy of health risk assessment. This study performed a t ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2023Adequacy of stationary measurements as proxies for residential personal exposure to gaseous and particle air pollutants
People are exposed to myriad of airborne pollutants in their homes. Owing to diverse potential sources of air pollution and human activity patterns, accurate assessment of residential exposures is complex. In this study, we explored the relationship betwee ...
ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE2023Comparison of two methods for bioaerosol sampling and characterization in a low-biomass chamber environment
Dusan Licina, Shen Yang, Marouane Merizak, Akila Muthalagu
Bioaerosols are emitted from various sources into the indoor environment and can positively and negatively impact human health. Humans are the major source of bioaerosol emissions indoors, specifically for bacteria. However, efficient sampling to guarantee ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2023Optimal sensor placement for personal inhalation exposure detection in static and dynamic office environments
Modern health and productivity concerns related to air pollutant exposure in buildings have sparked the need for occupant-centric monitoring and ventilation control. The existing personal exposure monitoring is often restricted to stationary air quality se ...
