Abstract

A total of 75 locations in 26 houses were examined for fungal contamination.Sixteen genera from 68 locations were detected.Cladosporium was the dominant contaminant .A high frequency of contamination was seen to involve Cladosporium, of which C. sphaerospermum and C. cladosporioides were detected most frequently at rates of 63.6% and 14.6% , respectively.
