Summary
Indoor climate was assessed in an apartment in Japan, by use of a fungal index. The index is determined by measuring the growth rate of a biosensor fungus, Eurotium herbariorum J-183. A good correlation was observed between the fungal index and fungal contamination. Therefore, areas susceptible to fungal contamination can be estimated by use of the fungal index.
