Aerobiology is the study of airborne organic particulates in the
environment, such as bacteria or fungal spores. These can be either
naturally occurring or artificially introduced into the air. Some
of the toxicological, pharmacological, and physiological effects of
bioaerosols include infections, allergies, and cancer. Research
efforts in aerobiology range from remediating household mould to
combating bioterrorism. This book focusses on the toxicological
aspects of aerobiology, considering the adverse health effects
associated with the inhalation of specific bioaerosols, such as
anthrax and ricin. Additionally, chapters cover techniques for
generating, sampling and characterizing airborne biological
materials as well as methods for establishing standards of
exposure. Moreover, mitigation of exposure and protection against
exposure are described. Bringing together the contemporary status
of information in the area, this book will be a valuable reference
book for pulmonary specialists, general practitioners of medicine,
public health and public safety officers, first responders,
military personnel, and students studying toxicology and related
disciplines.
