Short summary
The "PolluRisk" platform simulated two urban scenarios: standard traffic and biomass burning. Using a smog chamber, the study showed that wood heating significantly modified aerosol chemistry, with organic fractions reaching 40 % of PM1 mass. Advanced mass spectrometry identified specific tracers of oxidation and combustion. These results provide a chemical framework for separate biological exposure experiments.
