The chemical composition of indoor air changes due to the reactive nature of the indoor environment. Historically, only the stable parent compounds were investigated due to their ease of measurement by conventional methods. Today, however, scientists can better characterize oxidation products (gas and particulate-phase) formed by indoor chemistry. An understanding of occupant exposure can be developed through the investigation of indoor oxidants, the use of derivatization techniques, atmospheric pressure detection, the development of real-time technologies, and improved complex modeling techniques. Moreover, the connection between exposure and health effects is now receiving more attention from the research community. Nevertheless, a need still exists for improved understanding of the possible link between indoor air chemistry and observed acute or chronic health effects and long-term effects such as work-related asthma.
由于室内环境的反应特性，室内空气的化学成分会发生变化。从历史上看，由于传统方法易于测量，所以只对稳定的母体化合物进行了研究。然而如今，科学家能够更好地表征由室内化学反应形成的氧化产物（气相和颗粒相）。通过对室内氧化剂的研究、衍生化技术的应用、大气压检测、实时技术的开发以及改进的复杂建模技术，可以深入了解居住者的暴露情况。此外，暴露与健康影响之间的联系如今正受到研究界更多的关注。尽管如此，对于室内空气化学与观察到的急性或慢性健康影响以及诸如与工作相关的哮喘等长期影响之间可能存在的联系，仍需要进一步深入了解。
