Abstract
Unintended consequences, such as mould growth, can occur in building constructions such as internally insulated walls. As part of exploratory research, we examined whether air sampling through impaction and culture-based analysis could be used as means to detect interstitial mould. The results extracted suggest that the measurements may be affected by the coverage of mould within confined spaces and the indoor air velocity.
