AEROBIOLOGY & INDOOR AIR QUALITY
n `AEROBIOLOGY' ? STUDY OF LIVING ORGANISMS & THEIR PARTS IN AIR
n INCLUDES MICROBIAL QUALITY OF INDOOR AIR
n INDOOR AIR IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL EQUALIZER!
n EXPOSURE TO `INDOOR AIR' WITH CAVE-DWELLING ~200,000 YEARS AGO
n DOMESTICATED ANIMALS (CATTLE, DOGS & PIGS) FACILITATED RISE OF ZOONOSES INCLUDING AIRBORNE ONES (E.G., MEASLES)
n WE SPEND MORE TIME INDOORS & BREATHE ~11,000 L OF AIR/DAY
n WE ALL LEAVE OUR OWN PERSONAL MICROBIAL `FOOT-PRINT' INDOORS
n BUT, LACK OF STANDARDIZED WAYS TO STUDY MICROBIAL AIR QUALITY
n ALSO, DEARTH OF MEANS TO ASSESS INDOOR AIR DECONTAMINATION
