  • Abstract:
  • Aeropalynology is a scientific and multidisciplinary approach focused on the transport of organisms and biologically significant materials drawing information from palynology, ecology, mycology, plant pathology and also from bio chemistry, immunology and clinical medicine etc. it is now well established fact that some pollen grains are responsible to cause human respiratory allergy. After maturity pollen grains are dispersed by wind or animal vectors to reach the ultimate destination to execute fertilization. The pre requisite for atmospheric pollen studies is a sound knowledge of the ground flora and a well stocked pollen herbarium. Primary classification of pollen morphotypes of allergenic plants is to be formulated in the form of pollination calendar and pollen calendar to render identification of air borne pollen grains. The atmospheric pollen grains are generally trapped by volumetric air sampler or occasionally by using gravity slide methods. Respiratory allergy being a very common disease all over the world, it is necessary to monitor long term pollen survey for preparing regression models of allergenic pollen grains. Respiratory allergy or asthma if caused by pollen grains can now be tackled through immunotherapy by using purified allergens following hyposensitization process.
