摘要在为期一年的研究期间，从伊朗伊斯法罕的空气中采集了288份样本，分离出954个真菌菌落。在分离到的真菌中，枝孢属、酵母属、青霉属、曲霉属和链格孢属分别是最常见的分离物。这项研究表明，环境因素影响空气中的真菌，机会真菌的数量和类型，在伊斯法罕。采样地点是一个重要因素：有更多的真菌菌落计数在城市的中心和人口稠密的地方比在人口较少的农村地区。关于采集时间，从中午采集的样本中获得的菌落计数最多，早晨最少。本研究表明，具有临床意义的气传真菌的发病率与环境条件的变化有直接关系。本研究的结果有助于更好地了解空气中真菌的发生模式，并可能对过敏症，临床医生和流行病学家有用。
Summary. During the one‐year period of this study, 288 samples were taken and 954 fungal colonies were isolated from the air of Isfahan, Iran. Among the fungi isolated, Cladosporium, yeasts, Penicillium, Aspergillus and Alternaria were the most frequent isolates respectively. This study showed that environmental factors affect the number and types of airborne fungi, opportunistic fungi, in Isfahan. Sampling location was an important factor: there were more fungal colony counts in the centre and populated locations of the city than in the less populated and rural areas. Regarding collection time, the most colony counts were obtained from samples collected at mid‐day and the least in the morning. This study indicated that the incidence of airborne fungi with clinical significance had a direct relationship with the variation of environmental conditions. The results of the present study contribute towards a better understanding of the pattern of occurrence of airborne fungi, and may be useful for allergists, clinicians and epidemiologists.
