title: [Polysaccharide compounds of mycelial fungi in dust of living quarters].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Detection of correlation between quantity of fungi and concentration of polysaccharides in dust of living quarters in Moscow.
  
  
  METHODS
  Micromycetes from home dust were isolated by dilution method (1:1000). Polysaccharide concentration in home dust was evaluated by using gel-thromb test (Lal-test, Associates of Cape Cod Inc.).
  
  
  RESULTS
  Correlation between quantity of fungi and concentration of polysaccharide in home dust was not detected.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  For pyrogenic load evaluation in quarters besides detection of quantity of micromycetes and exposition of microgenic allergens, consideration of concentration of polysaccharide compounds is also actual.
