在马来西亚，地毯通常被用作清真寺主祈祷厅的装饰地板材料。在清洁地毯方面，扫地是最受欢迎的方法，但它直接引发了可能含有细菌和真菌的灰尘的上升。清扫活动和通风策略(空调分体式单元(acsu)或主动通风(非acsu))可以影响细菌和真菌生长的流行。本研究旨在建立不同通风方式下清真寺主礼拜大厅细菌总数、真菌总数和PM10浓度。细菌和真菌种类的鉴定也在本研究中进行。在马来西亚槟榔屿的25座清真寺建筑(17座acsu和8座非acsu)中进行了抽样，这些建筑在Zohor-Asar 和Friday-Asar 祈祷仪式上铺设了地毯。结果表明:在166cfu/m3 ~ 660 cfu/m3、118 cfu/m3 ~ 660 cfu/m3和11.15 ±范围内，有ACSUs的清真寺细菌总数、真菌总数和PM10 浓度均高于无ACSUs的清真寺;9.32 µg/m3至49.30 ±13.13 µg/m3。细菌总数超过室内空气质量工业操作规程(ICOP)可接受的指导限值，但真菌总数和PM10 浓度未达到可接受的指导限值。 In some mosques, the total bacterial and fungal counts did not decrease even after hoovering activities were completed. The dominant types of bacteria found in the mosque buildings were Staphylococcus spp., Bacillus spp. and Micrococci spp., whilst the dominant fungal species was Aspergillus niger. Although the findings were not alarming, care should be taken by mosques authorities especially while and after hoovering, to ensure that, the indoor air quality in mosques are being maintained within the permissible limit to protect worshippers from being exposed to bacterial and fungal.
