S, Zn, Pb, Br, Sb, As, Cl, Cd size distribution in U. Silesia had a major fine mode. Fe, Ca had a major coarse mode and K, Cr, Mn and Cu had broad size distributions. For most elements the inhaled lung dose was well estimated from PM2.5, PM10 levels. Significant deviations were observed for certain metals (Mn, Cd, Br, Fe, Ca).
