Airborne molds and bacteria, microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOC), plasticizers and formaldehyde in dwellings in three North European cities in relation to sick building syndrome (SBS) (original) (raw)
2013, Science of The Total Environment
► We examine whether MVOCs, airborne bacteria, molds, formaldehyde and plasticizers in dwellings were associated with SBS. ► We also study the associations between MVOCs and reports on dampness and mold. ► The indoor levels of some MVOCs were positively associated with SBS. ► Levels of airborne molds and bacteria and some MVOCs were higher in dwellings with a history of dampness and molds. ► Information on levels of individual MVOCs is of more value than the total level of MVOCs.
