Abstract

In our study, surface and environmental air samples from the historical buildings (houses, kiosks, Turkish bath, khans, train station) in seven different locations were investigated for their fungal flora. Sampling was performed in seven locations in Izmir (Bornova, Buca, Cesme, Foca, Karsiyaka, Konak and Tire) in autumn and summer of 2009. Totally 192 isolates were obtained from the air and surface samples of these places. Air samples were collected using a MAS-100 Microbial Air Sampler (Merck) and fungal load were detected by using Rose Bengal Chloramphenicol Agar (RBCA, Merck). Biofilm samples were obtained from different surfaces (stone, wood, plaster, marble, limestone, brick and paint). As a result of our study, 25 genera related to Zygomycota , anamorph Ascomycota and teleomorph Ascomycota were identified. Besides, Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp., Phoma sp., Alternaria sp., Chaetomium sp. and Cladosporium sp. were appeared the most frequently fungi genera. However, 6 isolates were not identified. It was observed that Aspergillus sp. was at the first stage with frequency of 21.88% while Penicillium sp. was at the second stage with 17.70%. In our study it was also shown that fungal load was much more in autumn than in summer due to its high moisture content and optimum temperature. Keywords: Airborne fungi, Ascomycota, Biofilm, Biomass, Microfungi. *Corresponding Author: Asli Sahiner (e-mail: asli.sahiner@ege.edu.tr ) (Received: 03.08.2012 Accepted: 03.01.2012)

土耳其伊兹密尔不同历史地点的真菌菌群
在我们的研究中,对七个不同地点的历史建筑(房屋,亭,土耳其浴室,汗,火车站)的表面和环境空气样本进行了真菌菌群调查。2009年秋季和夏季在伊兹密尔的7个地点(博尔诺娃、布卡、切斯梅、福卡、卡尔西亚卡、科纳克和泰尔)进行了抽样。从这些地方的空气和地面样本中分离出192株。采用MAS-100微生物空气采样器(Merck)采集空气样本,采用玫瑰孟加拉氯霉素琼脂(RBCA, Merck)检测真菌负荷。从不同的表面(石头、木材、石膏、大理石、石灰石、砖和油漆)获得生物膜样品。本研究共鉴定出关节菌门、变形子囊菌门和远变形子囊菌门等25个属。此外,出现频率最高的真菌属有曲霉属、青霉属、霉属、互交菌属、毛菌属和枝孢菌属。6株分离株未被鉴定。结果表明,曲霉以21.88%的频率出现在第一阶段,青霉以17.70%的频率出现在第二阶段。在我们的研究中,真菌负荷在秋季比夏季要大得多,这是由于秋季的高含水量和最适温度。关键词:空气传播真菌,子囊菌,生物膜,生物量,微真菌*通讯作者:Asli Sahiner (e-mail: asli.sahiner@ege.edu.tr)(收稿:03.08.2012,收稿:03.01.2012)
