The location was influenced by both road traffic emissions and domestic heating emissions. The experiment was done on January, 2015. Eight stage non-viable Andersen cascade ımpactor was used in the experiment. Collected particles were weighted and total particulate matter concentration was calculated 143g/m3 which is acceppted as “critical” in air pollution control regulations in TURKEY.
