The method comprises taking a sample of air in an indoor environment, detecting microbial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the sample by searching a chemical fingerprint including a target molecule that is the VOC associated with a metabolism Aspergillus. The method further comprises searching for zones of fungal contamination before taking the sample of air, and calculating a ranked chemical fungal contamination respectively to the presence and the absence of the VOCs from the predefined fungal metabolism. The chemical fingerprint comprises two target molecules. The method comprises taking a sample of air in an indoor environment, detecting microbial volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the sample, by searching a chemical fingerprint including a target molecule that is the VOC associated with a metabolism Aspergillus. The detection step comprises detecting the presence or absence of predetermined VOC from the fungal metabolism, where the predetermined VOC comprises: VOCs that are emitted regardless of the fungal species and its support and are issued only by fungal species; VOCs that are emitted regardless of the fungal species and the support, and which are issued by non-fungal biological species; and VOCs that are emitted depending on the fungal species and/or its support. The method further comprises searching for zones of fungal contamination before taking the sample of air, and calculating a ranked chemical fungal contamination respectively to the presence and the absence of the VOCs from the predefined fungal metabolism. The chemical fingerprint comprises two target molecules. The target molecule is two specific strains of Aspergillus. |
