RESUMO
Environmental air monitoring is a common practice in many institutions. However, the methodology involved in different studies has not been standardized, with most centers incubating samples at room temperature. Here we demonstrate that the incubation of plates at 35-40°C facilitates growth of Aspergillus section Fumigati, the most important pathogenic mold in humans. We examine the implications of these findings.
