Quality Testing

To ensure a high level of quality testing, we have adopted methods that are widely accepted throughout the industry and across North America. The test methods are developed by associations devoted to developing consistent test methods and by experts in the field of microscopic mycology.

NIOSH – National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health is part of the CDC and publishes standards of testing recognized throughout North America.

ASTM – A recognized leader in the development of international voluntary consensus standards.
