[Air quality and human health: PM10 and respiratory diseases].
In this paper a comparison between the air quality data collected in urban and rural areas is performed taking in account the PM10 levels allowed in the European Union and in the world and is related to the increase of respiratory diseases. The parameters considered are essentially due to the anthropogenic primary pollution: particulate matter PM10, benzene and toluene, CO and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.
