Low Cost Testing Mold Sample Collection Techniques

1.) For visible mold growth infestations & for surfaces
you wish to test for mold,
use the Scotch®Tape
Lift Sampling technique.

2.) To mold test the air of each room, attic, basement, crawl
space, garage, and the outward air flow from each heating or cooling duct register for the possible presence of elevated
levels of airborne mold spores, in comparison to your
outdoor mold control test, use do-it-yourself Mold Test Kits.

3.) Alternatively, hire a Certified Mold Inspector,
for a very thorough
physical inspection of
your home or office.

Michelle Medalla MD, a mold expert and practicing infectious decease physician will personally analyze your mold samples and provide mold identification.

For viable mold sampling, there are two primary ways to collect mold sample:

     1. Lift Tape Sampling - a method which non-testing professionals can do using Scotch Tape.

   2. Using mold test kits - this method requires the sophisticated testing equipment and services of a Certified Mold Inspector or you can use our do-it-yourself mold test kits.

Advanced Viable Mold Sample Analysis:

    
Viable mold testing is the growing of the collected mold sample in a mold culture plate for 5 to 7 days to maximize the accuracy of mold species and genus microscopic identification. This method also reports the number of mold colonies growing for each identified mold. PCI specializes in viable testing. The advantages of the advanced viable mold sample analysis over the standard mold sample analysis are the following:

  1. Digital color photographs of both the molds growing in the mold culture plate. If you are making or defending a legal or insurance claim against a seller, realtor, builder, contractor, landlord, lender, etc., other mold experts can use your photo's to confirm our lab's very accurate mold identifications.

  2. Storage of your mold samples for 10 years [most of our lab competitors destroy lab samples after just 30 days!]. This is helpful to you in making or defending a legal or insurance claim because fresh mold cultures of the samples you collected TODAY can be grown anytime in the future from the dried mold spores resident in your mold plates.

  3. A detailed written commentary of EACH mold identified [usually several pages long], including its human health consequences, is attached as an appendix to each of your mold lab reports.

Experience & Training of our Philippines Mold Lab Microbiologist:

Dr. Medalla has both a B.S. degree in biology and a Doctor of Medicine degree [M.D.] from the prestigious Univ. of the Philippines.
