Determination of the Carbon Content of Airborne Fungal Spores

Analytical Chemistry, 2001
Airborne fungal spores contribute potentially to the organic carbon of the atmospheric aerosol, mainly in the "coarse aerosol" size range 2.5-10 microm aerodynamic equivalent diameter (aed). Here, we report about a procedure to determine the organic carbon content of fungal spores frequently observed in the atmosphere.

Hygroscopicity of fungal spores

1996
Publisher Summary Fungal spores are particles that may cause respiratory symptoms and allergies. The assessment of respiratory exposure to these particles requires information on the concentration, composition of fungal flora, and aerodynamic diameter of the spores. If a particle is hygroscopic, its size may dramatically increase in the human airways,

Microfluidic System for Rapid Detection of Airborne Pathogenic Fungal Spores.

ACS Sensors, 2018
Airborne fungi, including Aspergillus species, are the major causes of human asthma. Direct capture and analysis of pathogenic fungi in indoor air is important for disease prevention and control.

Sensitization to fungal spores

Review of Palaeobotany and Palynology, 1967
Abstract The author has studied botanically the fungal spores which are found in the surroundings of patients suffering from rhinitis or asthma at the time of investigation. Penicillium was noted to be predominant, followed by the group of Cladosporium, Alternaria, Aspergillus, Rhizopus , and Mucor , and rarely by Phoma, Fusarium, Trichothecium,

An update on pollen and fungal spore aerobiology

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2002
Changes in climate are altering pollen distribution. Predictive modeling can be used to forecast long- and short-term changes in pollen concentrations. Increasing evidence confirms the presence of pollen allergens on small, respirable particles in the air, explaining the occurrence of pollen-season increases in asthma.

Transformation of Organic Compounds by Fungal Spores

1968
Publisher Summary The capacity of microorganisms to synthesize rapidly large quantities of protoplasm and reserve materials and to secrete a large variety of useful metabolites has led to industrial processes that can be classified arbitrarily into three categories. Microorganisms are grown on suitable media and harvested for their cells or for their

The fungal spore and food spoilage

Current Opinion in Food Science, 2017
This review aims to explore the connection between food spoilage by fungi to spore biology and modeling studies. It introduces the fungal spore as a vehicle of survival and distribution and discusses its variety and stress resistance. These spores are not static particles, they show maturation and change in time.
