Mold Testing: Surface Samples
1-Media fungi surface culture (Incl. Asp spp.)
Multiple dilutions of the sample are prepared and plated onto a broad-spectrum fungal media (MEA) and incubated for a designated amount of time at a specified temperature. Analysis includes identification to genus (species for Aspergillus) of all fungi present and quantification to cfu/unit.  More details...
1-Media fungi surface culture full (Pen&Clad genus)
Multiple dilutions of the sample are prepared and plated onto a broad-spectrum fungal media (MEA) and incubated for a designated amount of time at a specified temperature. Analysis includes identification to genus for Cladosporium and Penicillium, and identification to species for all other fungal colonies. Quantification is reported as cfu/unit.  More details...
1-Media fungi surface culture full speciation
Multiple dilutions of the sample are prepared and plated onto a broad-spectrum fungal media (MEA) and incubated for a designated amount of time at a specified temperature. Analysis includes identification to species for all fungal colonies. Quantification is reported as cfu/unit.  More details...
2-Media fungi surface culture (Incl. Asp spp.)
Multiple dilutions of the sample are prepared and plated on Malt Extract Agar (MEA) and Cornmeal Agar (CMA); incubated for a designated amount of time at a specified temperature. Analysis includes identification to genus (species for Aspergillus) of all fungi present and quantification to cfu/unit.  More details...

Analysis includes fungal identification to species of all fungi present and quantification to cfu/unit. Multiple dilutions and media types are used.  More details...
Direct microscopic exam (Qualitative)
Analysis includes a determination of whether spores present are indicative of mold growth or simply a mix of spores coming in from the outside (normal fallout). If mold growth is present, analysis includes identification to genus or group and a qualitative assessment of the amounts present. A general assessment of non-biological debris and other relevant commentary are also included.  More details...
Dust characterization
Analysis consists of identification of biological particulates.  More details...
Quantitative spore count direct exam
Analysis includes identification to genus or group of all fungi present, quantification to spores/cm2, and a general assessment of background debris.  More details...

Wood decay analysis
In this analysis, wood is evaluated for degrees of degradation. Wood is macroscopically and microscopically evaluated to assess the extent to which fungi have contributed to decay. This analysis is helpful for cases in which decay must be quantified and described. The results are provided as a narrative.  More details...
