Managing mildew

from Microbe Talk Hosted by Microbiology Society

This month on Microbe Talk, Laura speaks with Haoxiang Wu, PhD student at Hong Kong Baptist University. In some tropical climates, mould growth is managed by near-constant use of dehumidifiers or air conditioners, which has a great environmental impact. Haoxiang’s research involves using fluid dynamics to control indoor mould growth in a sustainable way. Read the following articles to find out more about Haoxiang’s research: Environmental sustainability and mould hygiene in buildings, International Journal of Environmental and Public Health Current challenges for shaping the sustainable and mould-free hygienic indoor environment in humid regions, Letters in Applied Microbiology The role of oxidative stress in the growth of the indoor mould Cladosporium cladosporioides under water dynamics, Indoor air You can get in touch with Haoxiang at [email protected]
