In the sample of sources stronger than 0.5 cts/ks. there are no sources with a ISO counterpart but no ddata. while there is a number of sources observed by ffor which there are no ISO counterparts. so in reftab:psfit we used only the classification derived from the oobservation.

The foreground absorption toward the Serpens complex can be estimated using the galactic extinction law of Baheall&Soneira (1980). where aj=O.15/sinb. z=10Ηsind. b being the galactic latitude and DM the distance modulus.
The foreground absorption toward the Serpens complex can be estimated using the galactic extinction law of \citet{bs80}, where $\alpha_{\rm inf} = 0.15/\sin b$, $z = 10^{((DM+5)/5)}\sin b$, $b$ being the galactic latitude and $DM$ the distance modulus.
Using the distance to Serpens of 260 pe (DM= 7) and its latitude (b= 5.39) one derives à minimum value of Ay=0.3 or N(H)=0.06x1077 em-7.
