Cladosporium species in indoor environments

open access: yesStudies in Mycology, 2018
As part of a worldwide survey of the indoor mycobiota about 520 new Cladosporium isolates from indoor environments mainly collected in China, Europe, New Zealand, North America and South Africa were investigated by using a polyphasic approach to determine their species identity.

Thirdhand smoke uptake to aerosol particles in the indoor environment

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
We report a new thirdhand smoke exposure route indoors from semivolatile organic compounds partitioning to aerosols. Aerosol composition measurements made in an indoor classroom indicate the uptake of thirdhand smoke (THS) species to indoor particles, a ...

Effects of Cigarettes Smoking on Pulmonary Function among University Students

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Pulmonary function testing is a physiological test that measures how an individual inhales or exhales volumes of air as a function of time. Smoking is greatly associated with reduction of pulmonary function.

Guidance to investigate university students’ bodily responses and perceptual assessments in sound exposure experiments

open access: yesIndoor Environments
Previous studies have shown that sound influences students both physiologically and perceptually. However, most of these studies focussed on the effects of sounds at group-level, ignoring individual differences.

Optimization of aerodynamic performance and aeroacoustic characteristics in axial flow fans for direct evaporative air conditioning systems

open access: yesEngineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics
Direct evaporative cooling (DEC) air conditioning has gained widespread adoption as a green and low-carbon cooling technology. However, large-airflow DEC units often suffer from elevated noise levels and reduced aerodynamic efficiency due to limitations ...

Disruption and adaptation: infant gut microbiota’s dynamic response to SARS-CoV-2 infection

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background The responses of the infant gut microbiota to infection significantly disrupt the natural intrahost evolutionary processes of the microbiome. Here, we collected a 16-month longitudinal cohort of infant gut microbiomes affected by severe acute ...
