Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate air quality in hairdresser salons, focusing on terpenes determination. Terpenes are known reactive volatile organic compounds that contribute to secondary organic aerosol formation. Those compounds are frequently found in cosmetic products as fragrance agents. Hairdresser salons are special kind of environment, where secondary organic aerosol concentration may be elevated. One hairdresser salon in Gdynia was chosen to carry out preliminary research. Indoor air samples from the salon were collected using diffusive samplers and sorbent tubes, which were later desorbed and analyzed by TD-GC-FID and TD-GC-MS. Determined limonene concentration varied between 6–74 μg m–3.
