中文摘要：

综述了大气颗粒物浓度与重金属元素分析方面的研究进展,阐述了大气颗粒物的界定、来源和组成、途径和危害、检测仪器和方法、相关技术标准等,比较了国内外相关标准、检测仪器等的发展情况,指出中国在法律法规、监测标准、测量仪器开发等方面仍存在一定差距,开发自动、在线、连续监测大气颗粒物的浓度及所含重金属元素的种类、含量等一体化仪器是检测仪器的发展方向。

英文摘要：

The research progress in analysis of concentration of particulate matter and contents of heavy metals in atmosphere at home and abroad is summarized, including the definition of particulate matter in atmosphere, its origin and composition, pathways and hazards, testing equipment and methods, technical standards and so on. The paper also compares the testing equipment and methods and the technical standards at home and abroad. It is shown that our country lags behind in these aspects. It is also pointed that instruments which can automatically and continuously do online testing should be developed at home and abroad.
