Sample information for the two main experiments: Moisture Availability and Collection Location Samples.
| Experiment Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Moisture Availability Samples | |
| Samples incubated at 50%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% and 95% ERH for 4 weeks at 25°C. Chemical emissions were measured using the flow-through chamber approach in which emissions were measured for a total of 2 hours. | |
| Carpet | |
| Carpet A sterilized (control) | |
| Carpet A with CA dust | |
| Drywall | |
| Painted Drywall A sterilized (control) | |
| Painted Drywall A inoculated in CA home 1 | |
| Collection Location Samples | |
| Duplicates of each sample type were incubated at 50% and 85% ERH for 4 weeks at ambient room temperature. Chemical emissions were measured using a direct sampling approach in which the sampling line for the volatile chemistry instrument was inserted into the parafilm covering the jar of an individual sample. | |
