| Resumen |
This study examines the growth and toxin production of Stachybotrys atra, a cellulose-decomposing fungus, in two respirator filters with different ratios of cellulose and fibreglass at 78-100% relative humidities of air for 86 days. S. atra grew only in filter material of high cellulose content. It grew slightly at relative humidity 84-89%, but did not produce toxins. Under saturated conditions, it grew and produced satratoxin H regardless of variation in temperature. |
