Prevalence of Microorganisms in Indoor Household Environments and their Pathogenesis

Abrar Hussain

Microorganisms have a ubiquitous distribution and are found in several environments including indoor settings, particularly in household compartments. In different household areas, their prevalence varies depending on different factors. These microorganisms comprise bacteria, fungi, viruses, mites, etc. and are exclusively found in the kitchen, bedroom, washrooms, fans, indoor dust and walls of the house. The current literature indicates the high prevalence of microorganisms in the different parts of indoor environments. The entry of these microbes in the indoor environment follows different channels like air, people, pets, water and growing plants. These microorganisms are also found greatly on culler phones and thus make them a causative tool of various diseases. The value of studying of these microorganisms is more promising if it is known to be a pathogenic species. The informative data were collected from PubMed, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar by searching key terms related to the scope of the review and analyzed carefully. This review aims to summarize the cumulative knowledge about indoor microorganisms and their role in pathogenesis with the hope that everyone should take care of themselves and their environments. The high prevalence of microorganisms in such niches is due to the presence of their ideal growth conditions and mostly transfers to each other by human contact. It is also evident that all types of these indoor microbes have the potential to cause infections and diseases including, asthma, pneumonia and allergy.
