Abstract

Sources of outdoor allergens vary from microscopic to large fauna, and aeroallergens include pollen grains, fungal spores, and cell fragments. Assessing the aeroallergen burden requires use of samplers measuring a volume of air to determine density and type of particle. Pollen and fungal airborne load is affected by meteorologic factors such as temperature and precipitation. Climate change associated with increased atmospheric temperature and carbon dioxide concentration potentiates allergenic plant biomass and pollen production.
