Has anyone ever run across the testing of a residential vacuum cleaner dust for

bacteria levels?

I have recently come across an evaluation of an apartment that was based on the

bacteria levels of the dust collected from a vacuum with not much supporting

anything other than the bacteria levels of the dust.

It was determined that the gram negative (over 50 million per gram of dust) and

the gram positive (6.7 per gram of dust) bacteria indicated a significant

moisture intrusion somewhere in the apartment that promotes the growth of

bacteria at levels that could put someone in the hospital.

Anyone ever run across the collection of dust from someones vacuum for the

purpose of evaluating the health of an indoor environment?
