Abstract

Sampling and analysis of particulate matter were conducted during the winter months of 1982 and 1983. Sanples werc collected daily for 24 hours, using two high volume samplers, located at the sampling sltc at the Universidad Metropolitana facilities, north Mexico City. Particulate matter collected during the winter of 1982 were analyzcd for total extractable organic mass, and alkylating agents in the acetone fraction, at the Institute of Environrnental Medicine of the New York University Medical Center.
