Abstract:
The article addresses the issues of hygienic assessment of mycological contamination of the indoor environment
in residential and public buildings. The study presents the results of an analysis of the quantitative and qualitative
composition of microscopic fungi in indoor air and on interior surfaces of premises with different functional purposes. The
prevalence of opportunistic pathogenic and allergenic fungal species is assessed, as well as their role in the formation of
unfavorable sanitary and hygienic living and occupancy conditions. The main factors contributing to the development of
mycological contamination are considered, including humidity levels, ventilation efficiency, temperature conditions, and the
condition of building structures. A comparative evaluation of the obtained data with current hygienic standards and sanitary
regulations is carried out. The results of the study may be used to substantiate preventive measures aimed at improving indoor
environmental quality and reducing the risk of adverse biological effects on human health
