title: A perspective on particulate size analysis of consumer aerosol products.
abstract: Various aspects of size distribution analysis of commercial aerosol spray products and their relevance to toxicity are discussed. Mechanisms of respiratory deposition, sizing methods, and aerosol terminology are reviewed. A presentation of much of the published aerosol size data is given, along with comments about the sizing and sampling techniques used in the reported studies.
