    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    In the document, the concentration of mesophilic and thermotolerant molds that can be cultivated on DG-18 agar, averaged over the sampling period, is determined by means of an indirect method after collection on a combination of gelatine filter with a polycarbonate filter underneath using a bioaerosol sampling tool based on VDI 2463 sheet 8 developed sampling head in the air (VDI 4252 Sheet 2).
