Abstract • Maintaining safety of astronauts during long-term habitation in the International Space Station (ISS) is an essential undertaking that must be attained for sustained human presence in space. • Of great concern is the ubiquitous presence of microorganisms, which have the potential to not only affect crew health but also have adverse effects on crew systems. Increased microbial burden on ISS could lead to infection or disease outbreaks in the closed habitat. • The threat of such an outbreak is especially hazardous due to the limited treatment and patient quarantine options. • To date, monitoring the microbial diversity of the ISS was performed utilizing culture-based methods for detailed molecular characterization.

Abstract
• Maintaining safety of astronauts during long-term habitation in the International Space Station (ISS) is
an essential undertaking that must be attained for sustained human presence in space.
• Of great concern is the ubiquitous presence of microorganisms, which have the potential to not only
affect crew health but also have adverse effects on crew systems. Increased microbial burden on ISS
could lead to infection or disease outbreaks in the closed habitat.
• The threat of such an outbreak is especially hazardous due to the limited treatment and patient
quarantine options.
• To date, monitoring the microbial diversity of the ISS was performed utilizing culture-based methods
for detailed molecular characterization.

• The microbial diversity of three distinct closed habitats such as the ISS, Inflatable Lunar-Mars Habitat
(ILMH) at University of North Dakota and a NASA spacecraft assembly facility (SAF) was characterized
using the state-of-the-art molecular techniques.
• Particles accumulated in the vacuum cleaner bags (ISS and SAF) and the floor samples of ILMH were
aseptically sampled and analyzed.
• Cultivation techniques augmented with rapid molecular techniques were used to measure total, viable,
and cultivable microbial burden.
• ATP assays was used to estimate the total and viable microbial burden.
• Propidium monoazide (PMA) treatment followed by qPCR was used to estimate viable bacterial burden.
• In addition, next-generation sequencing technologies were used to elucidate the full spectrum of total
and viable bacterial, archaeal, and fungal diversity.

• As estimated by ATP assay, the viable microbial burden of the debris collected from the ISS
are ~1 log higher than observed in SAF cleanroom environments. SAF floors are regularly
maintained with high pH cleaning agents where as such cleaning exercises are not routinely
performed in ISS unless otherwise any problem arise.
• Prior to human occupation, the ILMH surfaces were kept impeccably clean due to rigorous
maintenance. Subsequent 10-days ILMH occupation by “student astronauts” influenced
increase in viable microbial (106 RLU per m2; ATP-assay) and bacterial (108 rrn per m2; PMA-
qPCR-assay) burden in these ILMH surfaces. The source of these microbes might be
attributed to the environmental control system (air exchange) and human shedding.
• Two logs of higher bacterial burden as estimated by PMA-qPCR need further research. One
possible explanation for the higher bacterial signal is that by average ~10 rrn copies might be
present in a given bacterial cell.
• The approach adapted during this study was the first ever-comprehensive molecular effort to
assess the viability of microbial cells associated with space-related enclosed habitat and to
correlate differential viability with phylogenetic affiliation.
• The results of this study also improved our understanding of background microbial
contamination, thus facilitating the development of biosensors to monitor closed habitats like
ISS and future manned missions.
The ILMH surfaces exhibited accumulation of ~106 microbes and ~108 bacterial population per m2 after 10 days of “student astronauts”
occupation. Among these population ~70% microbial and ~21% bacterial populations are viable.
