Monitoring and control of the microbiological quality of the air is very important for human activity, which is why aeromicrobiology has boomed in recent years. Specialists suggest that to study the airborne of indoor and outdoor environments, numerous factors must be taken into account such as temperature, relative humidity, the time of year and even the time of the study, however, they forget that microorganisms are charged bioparticles and ignore the presence of an extremely low frequency oscillating magnetic field (ELF-OMF) at the time of air sampling. For this reason, the aim of this paper was to analyze the bibliographic sources that support the considerations about the influence of the ELF-OMF on the aeromicrobiota of indoor environments. The accepted scientific knowledge in microbiology on the effect of ionizing radiation on the excretion of pigments by the fungi and the electrical charge of microorganisms was linked to the experimental results of the electromagnetic attraction suffered by the same and the dust particles and ions in the air to which they may be united. Based on the link made, was supported that the ELF-OMF influences on the indoor aeromicrobiota, so it should be seen as a physical factor for the microbiological samplings of indoor air.
