About this product:

Table of Contents

Expanding far beyond its predecessor, this new text offers a

comprehensive guide to the assessment and control of bioaerosols in

the full range of contemporary workplaces. The popular Guidelines

notebook, originally published by ACGIH® in 1989, offered 100 pages

of information. The new volume is more than quintuple the size of

the earlier version.

Although the indoor environment remains a focus of concern, much of

the information in this publication has application beyond office

environments. The prominence of saprophytic microorganisms remains;

however, more attention has been given to other important biological

agents (e.g., arthropod and animal allergens, infectious agents, and

microbial volatile organic compounds). In addition, fuller

descriptions were provided for microbial toxins and cell wall

components that may cause health effects.

The new Bioaerosols: Assessment and Control was written by the

ACGIH® Bioaerosols Committee with contributions from other experts

in specific areas. The diversity in professional backgrounds and

specialties of the authors ensures comprehensive, informed coverage

of a broad spectrum of critical issues in the topic area.

Industrial hygienists, indoor environmental specialists,

occupational health professionals, teachers, and managers will find

this new text to be one of the most comprehensive guides to

bioaerosols ever produced.
