Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye Eskişehir’de seçilen üç evin farklı iç ortamlarındaki (yaşam alanı, yatak odası, mutfak, banyo, koridor) bakteri ve mantar konsantrasyonlarını değerlendirmektir. Her evde, günün hem öğle hem de akşam saatlerinde birer saatlik ölçümler yapılmıştır. Ölçüm çalışmaları pasif yöntemle yapılmış ve 2021 yılında kış, ilkbahar ve yaz olmak üzere üç mevsimde tekrarlanmıştır. Dış ortam havasının iç ortam havası üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmek üzere, eş zamanlı gerçekleştirilen iç ve dış ortam ölçüm sonuçları kullanılarak bakteri ve mantar için İç/Dış ortam oranları (İ/D) hesaplanmıştır. Üç evin çeşitli iç ortamlarındaki bakteri ve mantar aerosollerinin konsantrasyonları 1,00 – 1889,37 CFU/m3 arasında değişmektedir. Genel olarak, elde dilen sonuçlar Avrupa Komisyonu standartlarıyla karşılaştırıldığında “düşük” ve “yüksek” kirlilik seviyeleri arasında yer almaktadır. Bakteriler için en yüksek İ/D oranı yaz akşamı ölçüm periyodunda Ev 3'ün banyosunda, en yüksek İ/D mantar oranı ise kış akşamı periyodunda Ev 1'in koridorunda elde edilmiştir. Farklı mevsimlerde ölçülen bakteri ve mantar konsantrasyonları arasındaki ilişki incelendiğinde, Ev 1'de kış mevsimi ve Ev 2'de ilkbahar mevsimi hariç tüm mevsimlerde zayıf bir ilişki gözlenmiştir. Hem mevsimsel değişimlerin, hem de ev ortamlarının özelliklerinin iç mekan bakteri ve mantar konsantrasyonları üzerinde etkisi olduğu gözlemlenmiştir.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the concentrations of bacteria and fungi in different indoor environments (living area, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, hallway) of three selected homes in Eskişehir, Turkey. In each home, one-hour measurements were performed in both midday and evening hours of a day. Measurement studies were carried out by passive method and were repeated in three seasons as winter, spring and summer in the year of 2021. Indoor/Outdoor ratios (I/O) for bacteria and fungi were calculated by using simultaneous indoor and outdoor measurement results to evaluate the effect of outdoor air on indoor air. The concentrations of bacteria and fungi aerosols in the various indoor environments of three homes ranged between 1.00 – 1889.37 CFU/m3. In general, the results were between “low” and “high” pollution degrees when compared with European Commission standards. The highest I/O ratio for bacteria was found in the bathroom of Home 3 in the summer-evening measurement period while the highest I/O fungi ratio was obtained in the hallway of Home 1 in the winter-evening period. When the relationship between bacteria and fungi concentrations measured in different seasons was investigated, weak relationship was observed in all seasons except winter season at Home 1 and spring season at Home 2. Both seasonal variations and characteristics of the home environments were observed to have an effect on the indoor bacterial and fungal concentrations.
