Abstract / scope

ISO 16000-16:2008 specifies requirements for long-term (0,5 h to several hours) sampling of moulds in indoor air by filtration. Following the instructions given, a sample is obtained for subsequent detection of moulds by cultivation after suspension according to ISO 16000-17, which is part of the complete measurement procedure.

ISO 16000-16:2008 is not suitable for personal sampling.
