This facility is equipped to analyze viable and non-viable air, bulk, and direct surface samples.<\/p>\n<p>We offer a complete line of analytical methods and lab testing for the determination of mold and bacteria from bioaerosol, surface, and bulk material samples. Our mold and bacteria testing lab is dedicated to superior customer service and maintaining high standards for mold sampling results and laboratory analysis. Please view our mold testing laboratory protocols. Our laboratory is accredited and offers prompt mold testing results and online analysis.<\/p>\n<p>SanAir can help develop and ultimately provide\u00a0<b>custom sampling protocols<\/b>\u00a0based on specific client needs, for either individual or any combination of microbiological constituents.<\/p>\n<p><b>Viable Air Sample Analysis<\/b>\u00a0includes quantitative and qualitative assessment of fungi and bacteria using Andersen impaction or filtration air sampling techniques and viable culturing methods. Reports include identification to the genus and\/or species level, calculated values representing colony forming units per cubic liter of sampled air, and visual comparison of outdoor versus indoor microbial concentrations.<\/p>\n<p><b>Total Air Analysis<\/b>\u00a0(Air-O-Cell, Cyclex-d, Micro-5, or Laro-100) includes quantitative and qualitative assessment of fungal spores and environmental particles using direct light microscopy methods.
