Este estudio determinó el nivel de partículas en suspensión con diámetros ≤10 µm e ≤ 2,5 µm, y oportunistas fúngicos asociados en los parques urbanos de Mirador Sur, Iberoamericano y Colón, de la ciudad de Santo Domingo en la República Dominicana. Para esto se realizaron dos muestreos con intervalo de 24 horas, utilizando un muestreador PCE-MPC 10 para cuantificar el particulado y un Kestrel 5500 para variables atmosféricas. Las esporas fueron colectadas mediante la técnica de sedimentación en placa con agar Sabouraud e identificadas utilizando un microscopio Olimpus CX33. Según los resultados en ambos muestreos, el nivel del particulado de rango PM 2.5 µm y 10 µm en los parques no supera el límite presente en el Reglamento Técnico Ambiental de Calidad del Aire del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales de la República Dominicana. Entre los hongos identificados se encuentran: Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus sp. 1, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium, Dreschlera, Penicillium sp. 1, P. sp. 2, Paecilomyces sp., Nattrasia sp., Fusarium sp., Rhizophus sp., y Ulocladium sp.
This study determined the level of suspended particles with diameters ≤10 µm and ≤ 2.5 µm, and associated fungal opportunists in the urban parks of Mirador Sur, Iberoamericano and Colón in the city of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. For this purpose, two samples were taken with a 24-hour interval, using a PCE-MPC 10 sampler to quantify the particulate and a Kestrel 5500 for atmospheric variables. Spores were collected by means of the Sabouraud agar plate sedimentation technique and identified using an Olimpus CX33 microscope. According to the results of both samples, the level of the PM 2.5 µm and 10 µm range particles in the parks does not exceed the limit present in the Environmental Technical Regulation of Air Quality of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources of the Dominican Republic. Among the fungi identified are Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus sp. 1, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium, Dreschlera, Penicillium sp. 1, P. sp. 2, and Paecilomyces sp., Nattrasia sp., Fusarium sp., Rhizophus sp., and Ulocladium sp.
