Comparison of the method of quantitative determination of Legionella pneumophila acc. to PN-EN ISO 11731:2017 with the Legiolert™/Quanti-Tray® (IDEXX)
Introduction: Legionella pneumophila is the primary etiological agent of Legionnaires’ disease. These are opportunistic pathogens causing lung infections by inhalation of contaminated aerosols. Controlling the presence of these bacteria in domestic distribution water systems (mainly hot...

A Review of Selected Types of Indoor Air Purifiers in Terms of Microbial Air Contamination Reduction
Aims: With the ongoing pandemic and increased interest in measures to improve indoor air quality, various indoor air purifiers have become very popular and are widely used. This review presents the advantages and disadvantages of various types of technologies used in air purifiers in terms of reducing microbial contamination. Methods: A literature search was performed using Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed, as well as technical organizations dealing with indoor air-quality to identify research articles and documents within our defined scope of interest. Relevant sections: The available literature data focus mainly on the efficiency of devices based on tests conducted in laboratory conditions with test chambers, which does not reflect the real dimensions and conditions observed in residential areas. According to a wide range of articles on the topic, the actual effectiveness of air purifiers is significantly lower in real conditions than the values declared by the manufacturers in their marketing materials as well as technical specifications. Conclusions: According to current findings, using indoor air purifiers should not be the only measure to improve indoor air-quality; however, these can play a supporting role if their application is preceded by an appropriate technical and environmental analysis considering the real conditions of its use.
