The Professional MOLDetect® Test Kit:

 

Easy-to-use: A standardized procedure utilizing custom tape strips with a transparent "window" where surface samples are taken.  The window area is stained and read microscopically under high power and oil immersion [1000x] magnification in the lab.
NO Loss of Sample Material: Tape strips are applied directly to the microscope slide attached to the sample card after taking each sample (3 per slide); therefore, NO loss of sample material and NO exposure while specimen is in transit or during lab procedures.
Laboratory report includes semi-quantitative levels of spores observed (0-5+), identification of predominant fungal types (to genus), and what the results suggest.

 

1) TAKE SAMPLES FOR MOLD (three tape samples per card)

"Surface sampling is preferred over bulk sampling when a less destructive method of sample collection is desired."   Bioaerosols: Assessment and Control ACGIH 1999
