Mold Testing Method: Swabs
While Air-O-Cell machines are the gold standard for detecting airborne mold spores, we can’t overlook their reliable sidekick—swabs! Swabbing surface samples plays a crucial role in mold assessments by identifying the specific types of fungi growing on various surfaces.
This method is particularly important because air sampling often detects multiple fungal species, including those naturally present in the environment, making it difficult to pinpoint the exact source of contamination. Swabbing provides clear, site-specific data, which is essential for determining the appropriate remediation protocol for affected areas.
Once collected, swab samples are sent to an independent, AIHA-accredited laboratory for detailed analysis. The findings are then included in comprehensive reports to guide effective mold management and treatment strategies.
