Abstract(s)

The living environment can be a source for bioburden and azole-resistant mycobiota that depending on the occupant’s health status can be a serious public health problem. The objective of this study was to assess bioburden in Portuguese dwellings located in the Lisbon Region through active methods (air sampling) coupled with passive methods (Electrostatic dust cloth - EDC).
