The capacity of particles to increase allergic sensitization is predicted by particle number and surface area, not by particle mass.

Abstract excerpt

Particle exposure has traditionally been monitored as mass concentration of PM10 (particles with an aerodynamic diameter less than 10 microm), more recently also as PM2.5. The mass concentration is strongly influenced by the large particles. Therefore, particle mass is a poor measure for characterizing the amount of the small, possibly more biologically potent particles. We used polystyrene particles (PSP)...
