Sick Building Syndrome” (SBS) is the term commonly used for symptoms resulting from problems with indoor air quality. This thematic volume in the series examines the microbiological aspects of Sick Building Syndrome, with an emphasis on the mycology of this phenomenon. Focusing on the mechanisms by which Sick Building Syndrome occurs, this book details the current status of technologies for the detection and identification of the causative agents.
* Focuses on the mycology and scientific research of SBS
* Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
* Allergic rhinitis
* Fungi, Asthma and Mycotoxins
* Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
* Allergic rhinitis
* Fungi, Asthma and Mycotoxins
Researchers of SBS, doctors who treat SBS, and lawyers and building remeditors dealing with SBS
