Indoor-air microbiome in an urban subway network: diversity and dynamics.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Nov 2014

Leung Marcus H Y, Wilkins David, Li Ellen K T, Kong Fred K F, Lee Patrick K H

Abstract excerpt

Subway systems are indispensable for urban societies, but microbiological characteristics of subway aerosols are relatively unknown. Previous studies investigating microbial compositions in subways employed methodologies that underestimated the diversity of microbial exposure for commuters, with little focus on factors governing subway air microbiology, which may have public health implications. Here, a...
