Laboratory results for airborne mould and bacteria concentrations can be difficult to interpret for two major reasons. Maximum exposure limits have not been set Currently, there are no set maximum exposure limits (MELs) or threshold level values for airborne indoor mould and bacteria concentrations. Setting MELs would be difficult for reasons which include limitations in […]
Guidelines for Interpreting Numerical Data of Non-viable (Spore Traps) and Viable Airborne Mould Samples
In this article we discuss additional guidelines for interpreting numerical data for viable and non-viable airborne mould samples. The guidelines may be used to decide whether further investigations are required after initial investigations. However, numerical laboratory results cannot be used as the primary determinant of whether there is a mould problem but should always be […]
