Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the presence of airborne fungi at the tabacco Factory in Kavala, Greece. Material and methods: Materials for the tests were: the air samples (in front of the building and the selected rooms) of the Museum tabacco factory-old, Museum tabacco factory-new, and old tabacco factory. The air pollution was determined using SAS SUPER 100 (Pbi International). The microbial flora from walls was assessed using the Count-Tact applicator and the plate Count-Tact (BioMerieux). Humidity and temperature were evaluated by a termohygrometr. Results: The following fungal pathogens isolated from air were Aspergillus, Candida albicans, Candida spp., and Penicillium species. The dominated fungal pathogens isolated from the air samples were Aspergillus and Candida albicans. We found a comparable number of fungi colonies in these three museums. No significant correlation between CFU of fungi in air and temperature in the tested museums was noted. Similarly, no relationship between CFU of fungi in air and humidity was found. Conclusions: The main fungal pathogens isolated from the air samples were Aspergillus and Candida albicans in the tabacco factory in Kavala.

Purpose: The aim of this study was the analysis of fungal air pollution in different rooms using different the air samplers. Material and methods: Air for mycological studies was collected from various hospital rooms. To monitor fungal air pollution were used samplers: SAS SUPER 100 (pbi-international), MAS 100 (Merck) and AIR IDEAL (BioMerieux). Results: We found differences in CFU/L values in depending on hospital room and the air sampler type. The CFU/L values of air samples taken by the AIR IDEAL ranged from 350 to 850 and (724.2 ± 159.9), and the CFU/L values of air samples taken by the sampler SAS SUPER 100 ranged from 160 to 800 (455.3 ± 250.73). The CFU/L values of air samples taken by the MAS 100 sampler varied from 50 to 1340 (302.5±56.6) From the air samples of both samplers was incubated 6 genera/species of fungi. Candia albicans fungi species and genus Penicillium species were most frequently isolated from SAS Super 100 sampler, and Penicillium species from the AIR IDEAL sampler. From the air samples of MAS 100 was isolated 11 types/species of fungi and in air samples of SAS Super 100 was isolated 7 types/species. Conclusions: Significant differences of CFU/L values in the tested rooms were found in depending on the used sampler. Mycological analysis of the obtained cultures from air samples suggests that there is not same isolation of fungi using the different samplers.
