  2. SURFACE SAMPLING FOR MOLD Surface sampling is the most common technique used to test surfaces for mold during a mold inspection.  It provides valuable information.  The species of mold, the relative degree of contamination, and the potential for airborne spore production may all be determined by tape sampling. This method can be performed using either standard, clear cellophane tape or a packaged kit specifically designed for mold sampling.  Both types involve sampling by direct contact to visible mold.  

  3. AIR SAMPLING FOR MOLD Taking air samples during a mold inspection is important for several reasons.  Mold spores are not visible to the naked eye, and the types of mold present can often be determined through laboratory analysis of the air samples.  Having samples analyzed can also help provide evidence of the scope and severity of a mold problem, as well as aid in assessing human exposure to mold spores.

  4. COMMON MOLD TESTS There are may forms of mold testing that can determine whether or not your home or office has mold, and the severity of issue if one exists. The most common form of testing is Air Sampling, which basically traps spores in the air onto a sticky slide within a cassette that is mounted on top of a pump. The cassette is then detached, secured and sent off to a lab for analysis. Another common type of test is Surface Sampling. This form of testing is to take a direct lift of a suspect area, and place it onto a slide and then it too is sent for analysis. Swab sampling is nearly the same as surface sampling, without the use of the slide, but it too is testing a suspect area with direct contact. For the next few days we’ll discuss and detail each of the most common mold tests used today.
