cross-contamination, I wonder if there is any study that was done on

cross contamination?

For instance, let's say there is a commercial building with offices.

Let's say it has sustained a moisture problem and the presence of

stachy and its mycotoxins is established. People come to work there

every day and when they return to their homes they would

cross-contaminate them, right? Furthermore, if the building in

question is something like a bank or tax administration office, it

stands to reason to suppose that everyone who comes inside, every

person that has some business to do there, can potentially become a

carrier of mycotoxins and cross-contaminate his/her apparment.

Has anyone tried to scientifically investigate and to prove that such

sick buildings can really cross-contaminate other buildings that do

NOT have problem with moisture? Just by spreading on people's

belongings / clothes? If you know about it, please post it. Even if

it must be bought.

I learned about a study done by Kruase I think . It done on Stachy in

parictulur and the effects is has on sick buildings. I am now on a dial up line

because I had to leave my home due to cross contamination.

Can you find and post the Internet address of that study? Also I think

you mispelled that name. Is it perhaps Krause (Google spelling

suggestion)?
