2024 Yes Aerosol fluorescence, airborne hexosaminidase, and quantitative genomics distinguish reductions in airborne fungal loads following major school renovations https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ina.12975 Caballero, Marina North America Experimental Epidemiological Ventilation rates Temperature Humidity Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Particulate Matter (PM) Fungi Pbap Airborne fungi Public schools Quantitative polymerase chain reaction Ultraviolet laser/light-induced fluorescence β-N-acetylhexosaminidase In 70+ Colorado classrooms, FAC and NAHA methods detected significant reductions in airborne fungi after renovations. FAC also aligned with qPCR results, supporting its use for real-time monitoring of fungal loads in school indoor environments. 2021
