Abstract

Aerobiology is a branch of biology that examines biological particles found both in the outdoor and indoor air. People's daily lives are influenced by these airborne biological particles in the air. Many people in society show an allergic reaction to these allergic airborne particles. A significant portion of the world's population reacts with airborne particles inhaled in various forms. The severity of these reactions varies with the degree of exposure to these particles over time and the concentration of the inhaled particles. In this study, for two years it has been investigated that biological particles (fungal hyphal fragments, pteridophyte spores, plant hairs, insect, insect extremities, moth scales, diatom etc. except for pollen and fungal spores) of Kirsehir atmosphere by using Burkard 7-day air sampler. In total, 4674 particles in 2015, and 5262 biological particles in 2016, have been counted
