从1991年12月至1993年9月，对加拿大安大略基奇纳-滑铁卢15个住宅的几个房间进行了室内空气真菌的研究。有显着差异的空气中的孢子浓度之间的类型的房间进行了调查。空气传播的数量最高的客厅，其次是家庭室，厨房，浴室和卧室。最高的真菌多样性被发现在厨房。一般来说，潮湿和地毯的存在会导致空气中孢子数量的增加。强制空气加热系统，加湿器，空气过滤器和空调减少空气中真菌的浓度。患有呼吸道过敏和已知对霉菌敏感的患者报告的过敏症状明显低于装有空调，空气过滤器，加湿器和强制空气加热系统的住宅的平均水平。在潮湿的住所，他们的症状明显比平均水平更严重。
The indoor aeromycota in several rooms of each of 15 residences in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada was studied from December 1991 to September 1993. There were significant differences in airborne spore concentrations among the types of rooms investigated. Numbers of airborne propagules were highest in the living rooms, followed by family rooms, kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. The highest fungal diversity was found in kitchens. Generally, presence of dampness and of carpets led to increased numbers of airborne spores. Forced air heating systems, humidifiers, air filters and air conditioners reduced concentrations of airborne fungi. Patients with respiratory allergies and known sensitivity to moulds reported allergic symptoms significantly less severe than average in residences with air conditioners, air filters, humidifiers and forced air heating systems. In damp residences, their symptoms were significantly more severe than the average.
