“…The Burkard 7-day Volumetric Spore Trap (Burkard Manufacturing Company Ltd., Hertfordshire, UK) with a single-stage rotating drum is widely used for collecting outdoor fungi (Emberlin, Newman, & Bryant, 1995;Mitakakis, Clift, & McGee, 2001). The slit glass-slide impactors, such as the Burkard Personal Volumetric Air Sampler (Burkard Manufacturing Company Ltd.) and the Air-O-Cell sampling cassette (Zefon Analytical Instruments, Inc., St. Petersburg, FL, USA), are typically used for indoor spore sampling (e.g., Levetin, Shaughnessy, Fisher, Ligman, & Harrison, 1995;DeKoster & Thorne, 1995;Adhikari, Sen, Gupta-Bhattacharya, & Chanda, 2000).…”
