Abstract
The purpose of this study were to sample particulate matter and analyze its elements and microorganisms for secondary school science project. The particulate matter was sampled on the rooftop a four-store building at a university in Chungju province. A simplified capturing system was developed with the parts, motor-pump, innet, $1.0{\mu}m$ teflon filter, filter-holder, etc. Using the system, this study had sampled particulate matter during Dec., 2013-Jun., 2014. Then, this study analyzed the elements and microorganisms of the sampled particulate matter. Results have been shown that the particulate matter derived China urban area is mainly consisted of the artificial pollutant, such as Cu, Zn, Cd, Ni, Pb. In addition, this study has been shown that microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, are included in the particulate matter. Therefore, this study suggests a new systemic investigation and monitoring about the particulate matter, specially originated from China. Also, this study provides a sample for secondary school science experiment.
