[en] The report concerns a "FIRST spin-off" project aiming at creating a spin-off company based on the research of the unity of the university. The study concerned the design of an instrument, based on the "electronic nose" principle, to detect the presence of moulds on building materials from the analysis of the gas phase. The apparatus proved to be able of distinguishing pure material from contaminated one, but it was more difficult to identify the mould species.
