This part of ISO16000 specifies requirements for long-term (0,5h 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 ISO16000-17, which is part of the complete measurement procedure.
This part of ISO16000 is not suitable for personal sampling.
