Species of Fungi and Pollen in the PM<sub>1</sub> and the Inhalable Fraction of Indoor Air in Homes

Airborne microbial fragments in the PM<sub>1</sub> fraction (particles with aerodynamic diameters less than 1 µm) are a cause for concern as they may potentially deposit in the alveoli of the human airways. This study aimed to use qPCR to identify and quantify 24 different species or gro...
