Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Posted October 23, 2006 Has anyone tried using the Air-O-Cell cassette for air sampling? I need to run an air-sample and am considering this. I am done paying out a small fortune to hygienists who would do one more time exactly the same thing that I can now do myself. Any feedback would be appreciated. TEST KIT 5 - DO-IT-YOURSELF IAQ & DIRECT SAMPLE KIT (http://www.toxicmoldlab.com/PRODUCTS.htm) (http://www.toxicmoldlab.com/KIT1.htm) The same equipment and sampling techniques used by Certified Industrial Hygienists at a fraction of the cost. Also included is a FREE Direct Sampling Kit and a FREE EPA Guide to Mold in Your Home. Due to the ubiquity of mold and the absence of known threshold limit values IAQ testing for mold is conducted around the principle of comparative analysis. The results for the outside control or baseline sample are compared against the results from the indoor air samples. Why spend thousands of dollars on professional IAQ testing when you can do it yourself at fraction of the cost? Sampling mold in air (in your home or office) using a cassette slide impactor (Air-O-Cell) is the most accurate and widely accepted method of testing environments for the presence of mold contamination used by Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Professionals today. OFFICE OR HOME If you are interested in testing more than one location within your home than consider ordering an additional Air-O-Cell Cassette. Total cost includes all laboratory analysis fees. TEST KIT 5 + 1 EXTRA Air-O-Cell Cassette - includes 3 total Air-O-Cell cassettes, and Laboratory Analysis for all 3 samples $390.00 Special Price: $149.00 _ORDER NOW!_ (https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=schatz.moldverizon (DOT) net & undefined_quanti\ ty=1 & item_name=Mold+Test+Kit+5+(USPS+Shipping) & item_number=DO+ It+Youself+IAQ+with+Laboratory+Analysis) & amount=149.00 & shipping=18.00 & no_shipp ing=2 & no_note=1 & currency_code=USD) TEST KIT 5 + 2 EXTRA Air-O-Cell Cassettes - $490.00 Special Price: $199.00 _ORDER NOW!_ (https://www.paypal.com/xclick/business=schatz.moldverizon (DOT) net & undefined_quanti\ ty=1 & item_name=Mold+Test+Kit+5+(USPS+Shipping) & item_number=DO+ It+Youself+IAQ+with+Laboratory+Analysis) & amount=189.00 & shipping=18.00 & no_shipp ing=2 & no_note=1 & currency_code=USD) Call 1-800-351-9564 for custom orders. All TK6 orders come enclosed with 2 Air-O-Cell Cassettes. One sample should be taken in the area of concern and the other sample should be taken outside (outside control). If you have more than one area that is potentially contaminated by mold or is of concern, order an additional Air-O-Cell Cassette for each area to be tested.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2006 Report Posted October 24, 2006 I think Pro Lab should pay me for being a spokesperson or something but.... they are putting down a $10 test kit and promoting their $100.00 one. A tape lift won't tell you if you need to remediate since it won't give you a number. Incidentally I did a tape lift of some visible mold in attic (had someone do who was up there), and I used shipping tape but things did not seem to stick to it very well. Should a person use regular scotch tape? Interesting that heavier spores will fall into dish. I always do a sample with still air and then turn the air handling fan on and do another one so lighter ones have a change to be collected too. They all just give a partial picture, so answer is to use a variety of methods. > > http://www.toxicmoldlab.com/WARNING.htm > > problems useing petri dishes > Quote
Guest guest Posted October 24, 2006 Report Posted October 24, 2006 Look what useless test toxic mold lab is trying to sell after knocking Pro Lab because " there is mold everywhere " : <http://www.toxicmoldlab.com/KIT1.htm> For 12.00 you can get a stick that will change color if there are protein substances found on surface which AMY indicate mold instead of the $10 Pro Lab dish that will not only tell you it is mold but that it is viable since it will grow, for $2.00 less. Both methods require further analysis to identify. > > http://www.toxicmoldlab.com/WARNING.htm > > problems useing petri dishes > Quote
