Summary

This study will recruit 60 subjects, in sum of 30 families. We will measure 2 indoor environments (living room and bedroom) for All-in-one monitoring the indoor air quality, in which collected culturable fungus and bacteria indoor to calculate colony forming unit (CFU). We will apply Kore Technology (MS-200) (Electron Ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, EI-TOF-MS) to measure the indoor volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) before intervention and perform repeated measurements of VOCs and the concentration of phytoncides before intervention and one week later after placing potted plants into indoor environments (living room and bedroom).

In conclusion, this study aims to investigate the clinical utility of potted mint plants in reducing indoor bacterial and fungal growth and indoor air pollution, and cardiovascular benefits. Furthermore, the possible application of indoor potted mint plant in antiviral influenza or pneumonia in the future.
