Abstract |
Air-conditioning and humidification systems can be contaminated by various microorganisms. Air traitment for comfort, safety or industrial demands can also induce the presence of pathological manifestations of various origin, such as infectious diseases, immuno-allergic reactions, or the so-called sick building syndrome. These problems have led to the introduction of a biometrological and medical prevention strategy programme. This article reports on the experimental results of interventions in the years 1987-1988. |
