Abstract：To explore the propagative and diffused mechanism of fungi in central air conditioning system and control air microorganism contamination problem, growth rhythms of fungal colony and mycelium were researched in different thermal environments by thermal control. Fungi separated from the filter surface of the central air conditioning system in a gym were chosen as the research objects. By isolation, physiology and biochemistry experiments, and molecular biological identification, dominant fungi on the filter of central air conditioning system were confirmed. In order to conduct thermal control experiment of separated dominant fungi, growth rhythms of fungal colony and mycelium were observed at temperature of 25℃ and 22~28℃, respectively. As a result, it was shown that the dominant fungi were Penicillium spp. and Cladosporium spp., colonies were 600 and 140 cfu/cm2 respectively. It was indicated that regardless of constant or variable temperature conditions, the reproduction rate of Penicillium spp. was faster than Cladosporium spp., with a liner correlation between colony diameter and time. Penicillium spp. and Cladosporium spp were obviously restrained by temperature change control. Thermal control was feasible for restraining fungal growth in air conditioning system.
