Results showed that the microbial quantity in the air atthe workshop without depurator (54939 cfu·m^(-3)) was 2.1 times that of the workshop withdepu-rator (25768 cfu·m^(-3)). The depurator could purify air microorganisms at the workshop, witha purifying rate of 53.1%, but it did not reach the standards of clean air. Comparatively thedepurator is effective in reducing the quantity of air actinomyces, and some kinds of airactinomyces, such as Scabies, Cinereas and Hygroscopicas, can be clean out, but it is not veryeffective to bacteria and fungi. It is suggested that more effective and feasible methods should bedeveloped for purifying air microorganisms at the workshop in the future.展开更多
