Built Environment Microbiomes
Built Environment Microbiomes is a microbiome characterized by microbial communities that inhabit human-constructed environments, such as buildings, transportation systems, and infrastructure, distinguished from natural environment microbiomes by their distinct composition, assembly processes, and exposure to anthropogenic factors, including building design, ventilation, occupancy patterns, and material surfaces.
