Microbes in Air (Air Microflora)

Air does not act as a natural environment for the growth and multiplication of air-microflora, but it acts as a very good medium for their dispersal from one place to another. Several factors, e.g., humidity, temperature, sunlight and suspension of organic and inorganic substances affect the distribution of microbes in the air. Each particle of dust or smoke in air absorbs numerous microbes on its surface.

Variety of micro-organisms are present in the air. Spores of Bacillus and Clostridium, ascospores of yeast, cysts of protozoans. gram-negative rods and non-endosporous bacteria like Sarcina lutea and Micrococcus lutea are frequently found in the air of over populated regions. Spores of several microfungi, such as species of Alternaria. Penicillium and Aspergillus are present in abundance in the atmosphere over the oceans.
