Environmental Mycology in Public Health
Environmental Mycology in Public Health: Fungi and Mycotoxins Risk Assessment and Management provides the most updated information on fungi, an essential element in the survival of our global ecology that can also pose a significant threat to the health of occupants when they are present in buildings. As the exposure to fungi in homes is a significant risk factor for a number of respiratory symptoms, including allergies and hypersensitivity pneumonitis, this book presents information on fungi and their disease agents, important aspects of exposure assessment, and their impacts on health. This book answers the hard questions, including, "How does one detect and measure the presence of indoor ...
Exposure to Microbiological Agents in Indoor and Occupational Environments
This book intends to provide information about detection and health effects due to bacteria, fungi and viruses in indoor environments. The book will cover also information about preventive and protective measures to avoid health-hazardous. Case studies will be also addressed to enrich the book with the expertise of each invited author. The book also intends to fill a gap regarding information about all biologic agents, since most of the books available are dedicated to only one type of microorganisms. For various different biologic agents and metabolites this book will compile information about indoors presence, detection methods, exposure assessment and health effects. Several problems regarding the exposure of biologic agents will be presented through case studies, and also the implementation of preventive and protective measures to avoid/minimize exposure. Besides, all the book will focus on occupational health and/or public health point of view.

Molecular diagnostic methods for bacteria and fungi detection
Microorganisms, like bacteria and fungi, are ubiquitous worldwide and can have different roles in human’s lives. Some will bring beneficial effects which are exploited and used in industrial and agricultural sectors. Contrariwise, some are responsible for several life-threatening diseases. Microbial analysis, surveillance and research is therefore crucial. Until recently, the classical culturing methods were widely used to study bacteria and fungi. However these methods, although considered the gold standard, are becoming now obsolete since they tend to be time-consuming, have low sensitivity and are unable to detect some cellular morphological states, as the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state, leading to false negative results. Moving away from the classical methods, microbial detection is now evolving to new effective and rapid diagnostics.
Monitoring for Health Hazards at Work
MONITORING FOR HEALTH HAZARDS AT WORK Monitoring for Health Hazards at Work remains the seminal textbook on measuring and controlling the risk of workplace exposure to physical, chemical, and biological hazards. Designed for students studying occupational hygiene and exposure science, this comprehensive and accessible volume provides step-by-step guidance on identifying hazards and quantifying their risks in various workplace environments. Complete with checklists and practical examples, the authors present clear explanations of all types of hazards that can arise in the workplace, including dust, particles, fibrous aerosols, gases, vapours, and bioaerosols. The fifth edition features revise...
