LCSC VOC 2021-2022 Indoor Disinfectant Dataset
Description
This dataset is of indoor air measurements before, during and after use of COVID-19 disinfectants [Lysol® Power Bathroom Cleaner (2.50% citric acid), Clorox™ Clean-Up Cleaner+Bleach Original (1.84% sodium hypochlorite), diluted Clorox™ Regular Bleach (0.1% sodium hypochlorite), LabChem Reagent Grade Isopropanol (70% isopropanol in water), and EcoLab® Peroxide Multi Surface Cleaner and Disinfectant (8% hydrogen peroxide)]. Air samples were collected via sorbent tubes and analyzed through thermal desorption-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS). Concentration levels and thus human exposure levels of 112 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in indoor air were assessed in educational (office and classrooms) and residential (bathrooms and kitchens) spaces.
