【 摘 要 】

Molds attack buildings on a broad scale, cause significant damage and carry a number of negative effects on human health. The design of the methodology is based on EN 60068-2-10 "Environmental Impact Testing-Parts 2-10: Tests-Test J and Instructions: Mold Growth" and SN 72 4310 "Testing the Resistance of Building Products and Materials against Mold". However, the first of these standards is intended for electrical industry and the other was published in 1975 with no later revisions. The design of the new methodology aims at simplifying and updating and, last but not least, imitating the success of already implemented methodology for testing resistance to green algae growth. The proposed methodology was successfully verified on both standards and real samples.
