Streszczenie:
Mold is a type of fungus present in nearly all environments. Mold thrives under several environmental parameters such as high humidity and an adequate food source. A professional, such as an industrial hygienist, can measure mold in indoor and outdoor environments. Industrial hygienists commonly use a cascade impactor with a culture plate to capture air within a sampling area. While collecting air samples, environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide are recorded. A laboratory then cultures and analyzes the samples, identifying the types and amounts of viable mold

This thesis contributes to the field of acoustic environmental monitoring by developing novel semiautomated methods of processing long audio recordings to conduct species richness surveys efficiently. These methods allow a machine to select rich subset of the recordings though estimations of acoustic variety, which can then be presented to the human listener for species identifications. This work represents a step towards more effective biodiversity monitoring of vocal species that can be performed at a larger scale than is possible with traditional methods.

The level of environmental hygiene is often evaluated on olfactory and visual perception, in fact there are not universally recognized standards for measuring the effect of a detergent or the effectiveness of sanitation practices. In addition, when sanitation practices are not properly carried out, the environment may become a reservoir for microorganisms that are able to survive for days on furniture and floor surfaces, increasing the risk of infections. Preventive action plans developed in hospitals are mainly focused on controlling infections. This is of particular relevance due to the str

Campylobacter and Salmonella are foodborne pathogens commonly associated with raw poultry.

Environmental sampling is a pathogen monitoring technique that has become important in the food industry. Many food processing companies have adopted environmental sampling as a way to verify good manufacturing practices and sanitation plans in their facilities. Environmental sampling is helpful because it gives better information on the source of product contamination than end product sampling. Two specific pathogens of concern to the food industry are Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enterica. Environmental samples are rarely analyzed immediately, but instead may be batched for late

Rabies has been reported in Tanzania, mainly in the southern highland regions, since 1954. To date, rabies is endemic in all districts in Tanzania and efforts are being made to contain the disease. It was determined that mass vaccination of at least 70% of an animal population is most effective, in terms of profitability and cost, in reducing transmission of rabies. The current approach for vaccination in Tanzanian villages takes some features from the EPI method but is rather basic and unreliable.
