| Indoor Air Quality Analysis (IAQ) - Microorganisms in a building have been reported to cause 30% of building related health complaints and IAQ problems. We test for biological contaminants using bacterial and fungal growth media plates. The samples are then incubated and identified by our state approved laboratories. Many toxic molds and disease-causing bacteria can be identified by these tests. Based on results, remediation methods can be recommended. |
| Water Quality Analysis - Safe water for drinking and washing is critical. Water sources can become contaminated by chemical pollution and sewage run off containing dangerous pathogens. Our water quality analysis tests for a variety of chemical and biological contaminants. An EPA approved laboratory ensures the tested water meets or exceeds the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations. |
| Surface samples - Surface swab samples are taken from communal areas, placed on growth media, incubated at our labs where bacterial/fungal organisms are identified. Particularly relevant for schools and hospitals, these samples can reveal the presence of contagious pathogens such as the fungi which cause Ringworm, Impetigo, infectious Staphylococcal bacteria and other diseases. |
| Food Prep Areas - Food preparation areas are particular trouble spots for contamination. Bacteria can spread from one contaminated item to another. Surface swab testing for food pathogens such as Salmonella and E. coli determines the effectiveness of current sanitary procedures. |
| Soil Testing - Testing for soil pH & nitrogen, soluble salts, phosphorus and potassium are vital to monitoring nutrient levels and soil conditions. Lead and arsenic are the two most common heavy metal contaminants introduced by pesticides and various wastes. |
