Abstract:This investigation was conducted in order to gain first insight into concentrations, distribution patterns and potential sources of 16 US EPA priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organic molecular tracer compounds in dust samples collected in the Valparaiso region, Chile. Dust was sampled in schools (indoor and outdoor) that are ubicated in Puchuncavi (Greda, Greda los Alerces, Chocota,and Basica Horcon) and Quintero ( Liceo Politecnico, Inglès Quintero, Faro, Santa Filomena).
