“…The finding that T. harzianum was incapable of 6-PAP formation is not consistent with several earlier studies (Claydon et al 1987;Serrano-Carreon et al 1992;Scarselletti and Faull 1994;Bonnarme et al 1997;Whitaker et al 1998;El-Hasan et al 2007;Vinale et al 2008, Souza Ramos et al 2008Siddiquee et al 2012). However, in the opinion of Samuels (2006), Dodd et al (2003), and Polizzi et al (2011), T. harzianum strains used in mentioned works were misclassified strains of T. atroviride and T. viride. Moreover, these authors contend that the coconut-like odor characteristic for 6-PAP has been only detected in Trichoderma species belonging to the Trichoderma section (Samuels 2006;Dodd et al 2003;Polizzi et al 2011).…”

“…6-PAP was detected in the headspace of all T. atroviride and T. viridescens isolates, as well as in individual cultures of T. citrinoviride (4 isolates), T. hamatum (8 isolates), and T. viride (3 isolates). Previously, these compounds had been described as being produced by T. viride (Collins and Halim 1972;Bonnarme et al 1997), T. harzianum (Claydon et al 1987;Serrano-Carreon et al 1992;Scarselletti and Faull 1994;Bonnarme et al 1997;Whitaker et al 1998;El-Hasan et al 2007, Souza Ramos et al 2008Vinale et al 2008;Siddiquee et al 2012), T. koningii (Cutler et al 1986;Simon et al 1988), and T. atroviride (Reithner et al 2005(Reithner et al , 2007Stoppacher et al 2010;Polizzi et al 2011).…”

“…These volatiles have been described for T. atroviride , T. aureoviride , T. harzianum , T. longibrachiatum , T. pseudokoningii, and T. viride, and their spectrum is characteristic for each strain as well as dependent on growth phase and nutritional, biological, and environmental conditions (Wheatley et al 1997;Bruce et al 2000;Tarus et al 2003;Nemčovič et al 2008;Stoppacher et al 2010;Polizzi et al 2011).…”

“…Other volatile metabolites derived from Trichoderma spp., which are involved in complex Trichoderma-plant pathogen interactions, have been mainly assigned to alcohols, ketones, alkanes, furans, and mono-and sesquiterpenes (Ghisalberti et al 1992;Mannina et al 1997;Wheatley et al 1997;Fiedler et al 2001;Tarus et al 2003;Lloyd et al 2005;Nemčovič et al 2008;Stoppacher et al 2010;Polizzi et al 2011).

“…They stated that, fungi exposure was the unique significant risk factor for SBS in the non-sealed building, whilst no significant exposure to fungi in the indoor environment of the sealed building was found. Polizzi et al (2011) also announced that the 6-pentyl-2-pyrone produced by T. atroviride, a mould present in damp dwellings, can result in the appearance of SBS symptoms. The 6-pentyl-2-pyrone is a compound emitted on common building materials that could give irritation and damage to mucosal membranes.…”

Health and well-being are vitally important aspects of people centric building design and are the roots of productivity. Sick building syndrome (SBS) is a collection of factors that can negatively affect physical health in several ways. Besides physical health is also related to psychological well-being because the human body is one interactive biological system. This paper focuses on reviewing the current state of knowledge on building sickness syndrome which has been prevalent as a building illness since the 1970s especially in offices and schools. While the concepts of intelligent, smart and sustainable buildings have gained considerable attention during recent decades, there is now increasing attention being given to designing healthy buildings. This study provides a review about SBS symptoms. Several negative effects of SBS are identified and potential solutions are advocated. Finally, the study stresses the role of built environment and concludes that ongoing research towards tackling SBS and developing healthy indoor environments should not be limited to a single formula as any health-related building design approach is dependent on several interacting factors.

Fungal activities of indoor moulds on wood as a function of relative humidity during desorption and adsorption processes

Activities of moulds from domestic dwellings are normally classified into three groups—primary, secondary, and tertiary colonizers—according to the minimum relative humidity they require to colonize a substrate. With the help of isothermal calorimetry it is possible to directly measure the thermal activity from moulds as a function of climatic parameters. This makes it possible to provide more precise and detailed information of the growth behavior of these types of moulds under different temperature and relative humidity level than traditional methods. From this study, it is found that the optimal relative humidities and the recovery from drying are different for these three different colonizers. The fungal activities during desorption process are higher than during adsorption processes under the same relative humidity level for all of the samples. Such information makes it possible to model mould behavior indoors and can be used to access the risk for mould growth in the buildings.
