Survey of Indoor Molds (SIM) molecular analysis screens for 36 species, aligned with the EPA’s ERMI analysis standards. Perfect for non-carpeted spaces and settled dust from any surface. For the best results, sample dust accumulated within the last two weeks. Key Features:
- Whole house sampling: collect dust from one to ten locations with a single swab.
- Detailed Identification: every mold spore is identified and quantified.
- Mold Identification: identify historical, recent and current mold growth in a home.
- Rapidly determine the root cause of mold contamination.
- Develop a Mold Timeline: Location and sample settled dust with a sterile swab. Wipe down location(s), wait one week and resample newly settled dust in the same location(s) with a second swab.

The Mold Direct Exam, aka MoldScan. Sample is collected with a swab or tape-lift for a quick, easy, and low-cost solution for detecting mold in your home. Utilizing advanced microscopy techniques, this is the ideal option for a mold screening or preliminary investigation. When mold is detected, results are reported as present and qualitative amounts provided (low, medium, high) for 36 mold spores and other fungal structures. Which Collection Method Should I Use? Use a Swab
- For wet or heavily soiled surfaces
- Uneven, soft, and porous surfaces
- In tough to reach spaces
- When you suspect mold but don’t see active growth
- When growth is visible
- For hard, flat, nonporous surfaces

The Micro5 IAQ sampling cassette was pioneered to evenly and quantitatively collect mold & fungal spores, fibers, dander, insect components and other airborne contaminants. Deposition of particles/spores onto the adhesive is uniform in all directions due to spore trap design. The Micro5 is designed to operate at a flow ratee of 5 liters per minute for durations ranging from one to 10 minutes. Compatible with traditional vacuum pumps, as well as most portable units. Connect to a vacuum source with either a ½” or ¼” converter or directly with ¼” tubing.

The M-TRAP® is a unique air sampling cassette developed specifically for the rapid capture and analysis of airborne fungi, bacteria, and viruses using state-of-the-art DNA & RNA analysis. It embodies the next generation of capture technology for residential and occupation mold exposure assessment. The M-TRAP® excels where spore trap and agar impaction falls short —spore capture efficiency and turnaround time. M-TRAP® cassettes may be connected via 1/4” tubing to most standard air sampling pumps, is compatible with the Buck BioAire Pump and the Zefon Bio-Pump (adapter required). Sample at 15 liters per minute for 10 minutes. For long-term sampling of hours to days, use the WhisperCare ® Continuous Air Monitoring System. In order to submit samples using our red M-TRAP® cassette, all clients must first contact the lab to complete an account form. Any and all shipping will be processed on weekdays during hours of operation. Any item purchased after 3:30 pm EST will be processed the following business day.

Quantification of Lead down to 3 parts per billion (ppb). In water, lead is odorless, tasteless, and invisible, and even low levels are considered dangerous to your health. Contamination comes from lead pipes and lead solder in plumbing infrastructure including service lines; changes in water chemistry can cause corrosion, leading to higher levels of lead being released into the water supply. EPA maximum contamination limit is zero; action is recommended for levels exceeding 15 ppb. Key Reasons to Test Drinking Water for Lead:
- Plumbing Infrastructure especially for homes built before 1986 and if pipes corrode.
- Health: lead a toxic and a carcinogen. Even low levels can cause developmental issues in developing babies and children, including cognitive impairment, behavioral problems, and reduced IQ. In adults, long-term exposure may result in kidney damage, high blood pressure, and other serious health conditions.
- Protect Vulnerable Populations. Testing is especially important in households with young children, pregnant women, or nursing mothers, as these groups are at a higher risk of lead poisoning and its long-term effects.
- Peace of Mind knowing your family is protected from the harmful effects of lead.

The HYDRO-FOG® is a commercial grade, disinfectant fogging machine capable of utilizing all water-based, FDA–registered and approved-for-fogging cleaners. With its ultrasonic homogenizers, commonly referred to as “sonicators,” and toggle-enabled heating element, the HYDRO-FOG® provides tremendous versatility and potency. The use of a sonicator rather than the common atomizer gives the HYDRO-FOG® a competitive edge, creating particles of 5 microns or less in size. Compared to atomizer foggers which typically produce particles of around 20 microns in size, the use of sonicators drastically increases surface area coverage. When fogging chemicals, such as peroxide, the heating element plays its part by effectively “activating” the peroxide, increasing its potency. The HYDRO-FOG® can be used across the commercial, industrial, manufacturing, healthcare and residential sectors.

The ERMI test is an industry standard that offers a highly accurate and easy-to-understand method for assessing mold presence and health risks in a home. This analysis was developed by the EPA with the sample collected by vacuuming dust from carpet. For non-carpeted spaces, select the Survey of Indoor Mold KIT (SIM). Key Features:
- Comprehensive Detection: This panel includes 36 mold species, with 26 linked to water intrusion events such as Stachybotrys chartarum, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus versicolor, and Penicillium chysogenum. The remaining 10 species are exterior molds that act as the outdoor control.
- Carpeted Space Sampling: This test is specifically designed for carpeted spaces, with samples vacuumed from the carpet into a sterile dust collector (included with purchase). If your space lacks carpet, consider the SIM KIT, which tests for the same 36 mold species collected from dust on any surface.
- ERMI Score Included: The ERMI score, which ranges from -10 to 20, provides a relative moldiness index based on the levels of mold present. A higher score indicates a higher potential for mold-related health risks.
- User-Friendly: Receive an easy-to-understand report that clearly outlines the findings, helping you take informed action.
