Aim: Detection of correlation between quantity of fungi and concentration of polysaccharides in dust of living quarters in Moscow.
Materials and methods: Micromycetes from home dust were isolated by dilution method (1:1000). Polysaccharide concentration in home dust was evaluated by using gel-thromb test (Lal-test, Associates of Cape Cod Inc.).
Results: Correlation between quantity of fungi and concentration of polysaccharide in home dust was not detected.
Conclusion: For pyrogenic load evaluation in quarters besides detection of quantity of micromycetes and exposition of microgenic allergens, consideration of concentration of polysaccharide compounds is also actual.
