[Investigation of pollens, fungal spors and other materials in houst dust of Isparta]. / Isparta'daki ev tozlarinda polen, mantar sporu ve diger materyallerin Arastirilmasi.

In this study allergic materials in house dusts collected from preselected stations in Isparta between April 1996 and March 1997 are investigated. Ten stations were preselected for the study. Dusts vacuumed in vacuum cleaners are collected regularly from selected houses every month. Preparations were prepared with Wodehouse method. These preparations were investigated microscopically and diagnosis and counts of pollens, fungal spors, plant tissues, and starch particles per 4 cm(2) in respect to months are performed. Obtained results are transformed to allergic material per square centimeters and are shown with tables and graphics. As a result, pollens belonging to 44 taxons are detected in Isparta house dusts. Annual total pollen per cm(2) is found as 277.5. Among these pollens most frequently seen are Pinaceae, Poaceae, Asteraceae and Cupressaceae respectively. While starch is first in order (2224/cm(2)), plant tissues are seen 133/cm(2) and fungal spors are seen 17.1/cm(2). Allergic pollens for Isparta are Poaceae, Asteraceae and Cupressaceae and as the other, fungal spors. We believe that our results will be helpful for the physicians in diagnosis and treatment of patients with allergic disorders.
