MoldAPedia ^©

This bibliography lists key references for field and laboratory practices in the diagnosis and preventaion of environmental illness related to conditions in buildings, and covers the study and identification of bacteria, mold, and pollen, forensic microscopy, microchemistry, basic science and theory, environmental hazards in and around buildings and homes, clinical mold references regarding mold-related illness diagnosis, an online atlas of clinical mold, frequently asked questions about mold, and more information for professionals in the field of building science and health. These reference books and publications are maintained in our Aerobiology Laboratory for use in particle identification and determination of building particle sample contents. This is not purported to be a complete bibliography for the field of indoor air quality investigation. I have edited titles to sort by topic. © Copyright 2008 Daniel Friedman, All Rights Reserved.
