Emissions of bioaerosol from waste collection house at UiTM Selangor, Puncak Alam Campus / Nur Syuhada Amira Mat Saleh

Bioaerosol become one of the occupational health problems to the waste collector. Bioaerosol were generated by the decaying of the organic waste that cause by the microorganism activity. Microorganism from the decaying waste may become airborne by adhering to the dust particles. The objective of thi...
