dc.description.abstractOccupational exposure to bioburden (fungi and bacteria) in the workplaces is a major concern with increased relevance in clinical environments. Clinical settings must provide a clean and safe environment to protect patients and staff from nosocomial infections and occupational diseases. Active and passive sampling methods have been used to characterize occupational exposure to viable bioburden. Personal or stationary sampling of airborne bioburden can be performed to quantify exposure by inhalation but may be influenced by environmental variables, such as seasonal variation and ventilation. Whereas passive-collection methods allow the collection of contamination over a longer period (days, weeks or several months), air samples can only reflect the load of a shorter period (mostly minutes) corresponding to the sampling duration.pt_PT
