Mold Testing
TotallySafe Air Mold Test (Beta Glucan)
Device run-time: 24 hours Lab Turnaround Time: 1 Day
TotallySafe Air performs a highly sensitive test for the presence of actively growing mold suspended in air. A vast majority of mold species have beta glucan as a part of their cell walls, spores, and as smaller particulate matter emitted into the air by germinating and growing molds.
These smaller particles are more likely to remain airborne longer and penetrate deep into the lungs. This is the mold that could be hidden behind walls and potentially make their way into the bloodstream. We recommend this as a general assessment of the home. If you find high levels of mold with this test, there are additional testing options available for further diagnosis.
Air Answers is the only lab in the country offering this specific airborne mold test.
