Genus Stachybotrys (Stachybotryaceae, Hypocreales) requires high humidity to grow and represents one of the most notorious fungi associated with suspected illness in moist buildings. If conidia are found settled indoor dusts, their presence may indicate water intrusion mold infestation revealed after dismantling building structures. This study describes detection growth hidden inside structures three buildings Finland. First, a novel microscopic screening method concentrating from dust was developed. The is based on enrichment floating solution saturated NaCl, separating them sinking particles. Captured were identified morphology cultivated isolates species or genus level. second part records two persons sickened asthma exposure long lasting After 38 years diagnosis person's declared cured medical report. other person developed into chronic illness, diagnosed by Insurance Court as occupational caused moisture-damaged workplace. Diversity metabolic activity microbes exposing rural versus urban environments offered preliminary hypothetical explanation different outcome illnesses.

Abstract The prevalence of sensitization to molds is low in healthy people, but significant asthmatics. As it has not yet been possible establish a cause-and-effect relationship between the presence mold allergens and occurrence allergic symptoms, there great deal uncertainty. update S2k guideline “Medical–clinical diagnostics for indoor exposure” should help objectify topic. Based on recommendations listed diagnosis suspected IgE-mediated allergy, this article presents possibilities skin tests, IgE determinations, other vitro test options, also their limitations clarifying cause. Potential include component-resolved allergy diagnostics, while difficult standardization allergen extracts due complex source insufficient commercial availability extracts. A diagnostic algorithm presented as tool systematic approach patients with mold-associated respiratory allergy.
