Bibliography

Helps in planning formaldehyde indoor pollution measurements. In the case of indoor air measurements, the careful planning of sampling and the entire measurement strategy are of particular significance, since the result of the measurement can have far-reaching consequences, for example, with regard to the need for remedial action or the success of such an action.
