Indoor air pollution from biomass cookstoves seriously affects human health worldwide. This study investigated the effect of increasing air exchange rates in a Test Kitchen. Opening the door and window in a Test Kitchen lowered the particulate matter (PM) 1-hour concentrations between 93 and 98% compared to the closed kitchen, and the carbon monoxide (CO) 1-hour concentrations were 83 to 95% lower.
