文摘

Quantitative and qualitative assessment of indoor fungal contamination in traditional baths was conducted. Aspergillus, Penicillium and Candida were the most frequently isolated genera. Fungal loads are significantly related to the average number of customers and mean opening year of the Hammams. Hammams were suspected in mycoses transmission considering high level of fungal contamination.
