摘要：Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) can adversely affect children's health, comfort and school performance. This study mainly aimed to assess indoor and outdoor air quality status in terms of physical and chemical aspects at nurseries of two higher public institutions. The monitored parameters are temperature (T), relative humidity (RH), air movement (AM), particulate matter (PM), carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbon monoxide (CO) by using Climomaster (RH, T, AM), Dust Trax™ (RSP )and Kanomax IAQ (CO, CO2). The measurement was taken continuously in a period of three days at two nurseries of public institutions. Results show all chemicals contaminants at two nurseries did not exceed the standard except CO2 for indoor concentration. Indoor-Outdoor (I/O) ratio stated that PM10 concentrations were influenced by the outdoor contaminant for both study areas. In conclusion, this study provides useful information for engineers, policy makers and planners to make decision on managing and improving the environment in terms of air quality.
