Bacterial and fungal aerosols in indoor environment in Central and Eastern European countries.

摘要: Studies of indoor bioaerosols conducted in Central and Eastern European countries, as a result the scarcity funding, mostly do not attain level presented by similar studies Northern America Western Europe. For socio-economic reasons, most intense on countries were carried out industrial facilities have contributed significantly to occupational health science. In contrast, until recently, insufficient been residential communal premises (dwellings, offices, schools, etc.) no network for monitoring microbiological quality air such exists. Poland, mid-1990s complex bioaerosol investigations Bioaerosol Group at Institute Occupational Medicine Environmental Health Sosnowiec. The concentrations airborne bacteria fungi dwellings without mold problems between 88-4297 cfu/m(3) 0-1997 cfu/m(3), while moldy homes they 178-4751 49-16,968 respectively. As many 167 microbial species isolated from examined dwellings. Most frequently occurred Gram-positive cocci (Micrococcus/ Kocuria spp., Staphylococcus spp.), endospore-forming bacilli (Bacillus Gram-negative (Pseudomonadaceae, Aeromonas filamentous (Penicillium Aspergillus yeasts.
