One hour sampling was performed in each location and hourly mean concentrations were reported? Respective mean con centrations of CO in in door and outdoor air were 24.75±17.17 and 2.65±1.33 ppm with an average indoor to outdoor air concen tration ratio of 13.3+13.1. Within the variables studied; type of the tobacco smoked, locati on of the cafe in side the building, and utilizing mechanical ventilator, respectively, were recognized as the most influential factors controlling CO concentrations in Ghalyun cafes (p0.05). 73.5% of workers (27.3 and 95.7% of cafes located on ground floors and basements, respectively) were exposed to higher levels of CO than the corrected OEL-TWA (Occupational Exposure Limit) of 10.4 ppm.

Introduction CO is a colorless, non—irritating, odorless, and tasteless gaseous pollutant (Langston et al., 2010) that may be emitted into the environment from anthropogenic or natural sources? It is produced by in complete combustio n of carb on aceous fuels such as wood, petrol, coal, natural gas and kerosene (WHO, 2010). Motor vehicles and industries are r
