Fungi-Implicated Occupational Hypersensitivity Diseases of the Lung allergen by Horner et al. 1988 . Extrinsic allergic alveolitis caused by spores of Pleurotus ostreatus was reported by Cox et al. 1988 . In general, the adverse effects of fungal exposure by inhalation are related to duration and intensity.
