Investigations of the relationship betw een disease and airborne (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan in buildings.
Studies on the relationship between symptoms in indoor air and the amount of airborne (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan were reviewed. Relationships were found for symptoms and objective tests of airways inflammation. The data suggest that (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan could be a causative agent.
