Particulate matter (PM This study assessed household characteristics that predict the concentrations of PM A cross-sectional study was conducted in 374 households. Concentrations of PM The majority (89%, 332/374) of the households used charcoal for cooking. More than half (52%, 194/374) cooked outdoors.
