Quasi-ultrafine PM (PM0.25) and its components were measured in indoor and outdoor environments at four retirement communities in the Los Angeles basin, CA, as part of the Cardiovascular Health and Air Pollution Study (CHAPS). The present paper focuses on the characterization of the sources, organic constituents and indoor and outdoor relationships of quasi-ultrafine PM. The average indoor/outdoor ratios of most of the measured PAHs, hopanes and steranes were close to- or slightly lower than 1, and the corresponding indoor-outdoor correlation coefficients (R) were always positive and, for the most part, moderately strong (median R was 0.60 for PAHs and 0.74 for hopanes and steranes). This may reflect the possible impact of outdoor sources on indoor PAHs, hopanes and steranes. Conversely, indoor n-alkanes and n-alkanoic acids were likely to be influenced by indoor sources. A Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) model was applied to both indoor and outdoor speciated chemical measurements of quasi-ultrafine PM. Among all apportioned sources of both indoor and outdoor particles, vehicular emissions was the one contributing the most to the PM0.25 mass concentration measured at all sites (24–47% on average).
