摘要：

The study aimed to measure the concentration and composition of airborne fungi in a higher education institution. The temperature and relative humidity were recorded using TSI Q Trak Indoor Air Quality Monitor. The mean concentration of the indoor air fungi was in the range between 17.67-91.28 CFU/m(3). The most abundant airborne fungi were Aspergillus (22%), Fusarium (17%), and Penicillium (15%). The highest mean range concentration of airborne fungi was in the evening followed by in the afternoon and in the morning with a value range between 74 to 148 CFU/m(3), 18 to 148 CFU/m(3), and 5 to 30 CFU/m(3), respectively.
