This section contains the TX Tech Glossary of Fungi related to IAQ investigations, with citations, provided by Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center Department of Microbiology and Immunology.
"In this reference guide for fungi we have listed all the fungal species we are aware of that are associated with indoor air quality investigations and more. Please note however, that this reference guide does not cover every known fungal species.
This reference guide for fungi is slightly different than some of the other very good fungal glossaries on the web. We have included detailed references and corresponding abstracts that relate to allergenicity, toxicity and fungal infection for all fungi listed." Dr. David C. Straus
