    Title
    AirPEx: Air Pollution Exposure Model
    Translated Title
    AirPEx: een model voor de schatting van blootstelling aan luchtverontreiniging
    Publiekssamenvatting
    Een belangrijk onderdeel in het beoordelen van de gezondheidsrisico's van luchtverontreiniging voor de bevolking is de analyse van de inhalatoire blootstelling. Onderzoek op het gebied van inhalatoire blootstelling richt zich op het contact tussen mens en luchtverontreiniging en de entree van luchtverontreinigende stoffen in de luchtwegen. De aanleiding van dit onderzoek is de behoefte aan realistische blootstellings- en dosismaten om de gezondheidseffecten van luchtverontreinigende stoffen te evalueren. Het AirPEx (Air Pollution Exposure) model is ontwikkeld om de tijd/ruimte dynamiek van inhalatoire blootstelling van mensen aan luchtverontreiniging vast te stellen. Het model, dat operationeel is onder Windows 3.1 is geschikt om diverse blootstellings- en dosismaten voor zowel individuen als populaties/subpopulaties te schatten. Dit rapport beschrijft de theoretische basis van het AirPEx model en bevat een gebruikershandleiding voor het computerprogramma. Verscheidene voorbeelden illustreren de mogelijkheden van het AirPEx model. Het AirPEx model zal gebruikt gaan worden op het RIVM als een gereedschap in de analyse van de actuele blootstelling van de Nederlandse bevolking aan luchtverontreiniging.<br>
    Analysis of inhalatory exposure to air pollution is an important area of investigation when assessing the risks of air pollution for human health. Inhalatory exposure research focuses on the exposure of humans to air pollutants and the entry of these pollutants into the human respiratory tract. The principal grounds for studying the inhalatory exposure of humans to air pollutants are formed by the need for realistic exposure/dose estimates to evaluate the health effects of these pollutants. The AirPEx (Air Pollution Exposure) model, developed to assess the time- and space-dependence of inhalatory exposure of humans to air pollution, has been implemented for use as a Windows 3.1 computer program. The program is suited to estimating various exposure and dose quantities for individuals, as well as for populations and subpopulations. This report describes the fundamentals of the AirPEx model and provides a user manual for the computer program. Several examples included in the report illustrate the possibilities of the AirPEx model in exposure assessment. The model will be used at the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment as a tool in analysing the current exposure of the Dutch population to air pollutants.<br>
