Sampled using spore trap device
By Air-O-Cell, Cyclex, Allergenco D, or other spore trap cassette/device - This method of identification is used to provide an actual count and identification of different spores present in the air by pulling samples using a vacuum pump and an air trap device. When the air of the area of concern is pulled through a vacuum pump the spores, hyphea and other particulate materials are trapped on the spore trapmedia. At the laboratory this media is then prepared by the analyst for evaluation under the microscope. This method will give an overall analysis of the air quality in the area of concern.
