Journal Article
Sharpe, T., McGill, G., Dancer, S. J., King, M., Fletcher, L., & Noakes, C. J. (2020). Influence of ventilation use and occupant behaviour on surface microorganisms in contemporary social housing. Scientific Reports, 10(1), Article 11841 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-68809-2

In the context of increasingly airtight homes, there is currently little known about the type and diversity of microorganisms in the home, or factors that could affect their abundance, diversity and nature. In this study, we examined the type and pre... Read More about Influence of ventilation use and occupant behaviour on surface microorganisms in contemporary social housing.
