Abstract Details

2008, Master of Science in Occupational Health (MSOH), University of Toledo, College of Graduate Studies.
An indoor air quality survey has been conducted in a school building. Samples were collected inone room in each wing and each level on a quarterly basis beginning in August 2002 and ending in December 2007. Levels of temperature, RH, CO2 and total airborne fungal spore concentration were determined. Data were compared between wings and levels. Comparison of data by wing performed to evaluate the difference in age and type of univent present had on the temperature, RH, CO2 and total airborne fungal spore concentration. Data were also compared for seasonal variability. Temperature, RH, CO2 and total airborne fungal spore concentration were not statistically significantly different between wings or level, except for a difference in temperature by level. There were statistically significant differences in total airborne fungal spore concentrations seasonally.
