Abstract in brief
Most fungal exposure occurs outside the home, but used pillows inside the home can harbor numerous fungal species.
A study of 10 old pillows in the UK found 47 different fungal species, with Aspergillus fumigatus being the most common, especially in synthetic pillows.
These findings suggest that pillows may be a significant source of fungi, which could impact individuals with respiratory conditions like asthma and sinusitis.]
