Although PM is known to cause health hazard, specific attributes of PM that may cause health effects are somewhat ambiguous.

The dose of each specific component of PM together with relevant dose metrics may shed insights into understanding PM related health effects.Analysis of Particulate Pollutant (PM) and Gaseous Pollutant Fig. 1 Location of science college India Instrumentation- Ambient Air Quality Station Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Systems (AQMS) monitored the level of pollutants – NOx, CO, CH4, Particulate Matter (PM10 & PM),Ozone, etc.
