Overview

Aspergillus fumigatus is a species of common airborne mold found in soil and decaying organic matter. Its spores can pose potential health risks to humans, and has been linked to a variety of severe illnesses, such as asthma, allergies, and the more serious fungal infections such as aspergillosis. It is often used in research as a model organism, to study microbial DNA and its role in the environment and medical sciences. Aspergillus fumigatus is also used as an industrial bioagent for production of food and enzymes, and as an agent for agricultural and biotechnological applications. Its uses as a bioagent and its ability to decompose organic matter are important for maintaining the balance of the environment.
