The purpose of this study was to investigate the hygiene from one Student House Of Agronomical University Camp by evaluation of airborne microflora from 12 rooms (total air cubing: 480 m3). The degree of microbiological contamination of indoor air was checked by monitoring of 60 surface samples and 36 air samples. Qualitative analysis of indoor air and surfaces that might contain microorganisms was made by identifying colonies on Petri plate with solid culture specific to bacteria and molds. The results regarding microbes from indoor air presented fairly large variations from one room to another (from less than 100 CFU/m3 to slightly above 2000 CFU/m3), but in no one inverstigated space have been exceeding the admitted limit (2500 CFU/m3).
