Abstract

Urban environments harbor diverse microbial bioaerosols originating from various sources, including natural elements, human activities, vehicular traffic, and wastewater treatment. Research reveals significant spatio-temporal dynamics and the critical influence of meteorological factors on airborne microbial communities. Studies characterize these communities in specific settings like subway stations and differentiate between indoor and outdoor profiles. The collective findings consistently highlight and assess the potential health risks these airborne microbes pose to city dwellers, encompassing respiratory issues, allergies, and infectious diseases. This body of work underscores the imperative for continuous monitoring and standardized risk evaluation to protect public health in urban areas.
