Surface sample: involves using a sterile swab or direct tape lift to collect mold from a surface for direct microscopic examination and analysis. Bulk sample: involves physically extracting a piece of material from a surface for culturing or direct microscopic examination and analysis. Air sample: involves trapping air in a special cassette specifically designed for direct microscopic examination and analysis. Asthma Triggers and Allergen Screening Screening involves using a dust collection device to collect dust from interior settling reservoirs such as cold air returns, baseboards, bedding and furniture. Since indoor allergens can play a significant role in triggering asthma attacks, it is important to recognize potential indoor contaminants and reduce your exposure. With today’s technology, indoor environments can be tested for contaminants. All Services Include: Visual assessment. Moisture intrusion assessment (mold assessments only).
