Spore trap data should be reliable if results are to be used in assessing indoor spore types and concentrations and ultimately to evaluate the validity of exposure potential or remedial success. Spore trap analysis results are primarily used in indoor mold investigations to: assess the airborne spore concentrations and the potential for human mold exposure […]
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 […]
