Lead Analyses in Air, Soil,  and Bulk Matrices
Our chemistry division specializes in Lead Analysis as well as RCRA Heavy Metals Analysis. We are an AIHA-accredited environmental laboratory which is capable and certified to perform lead analyses in air, soil, bulk matrices. Using Graphite Furnace and Flame Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, we analyze paint chip, dust, soil, and TCLP samples and is able to provide fast, accurate turn-around times while also keeping costs low.

 

Our Laboratories are accredited for Lead in surface coatings such bas Toys etc for CPSC method through the National Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (NLLAP) and is a successful participant in the AIHA Environmental Lead Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELLAP).

 

Lead-Based Paint Analyses:
• AIHA Accreditation and NLLAP Accreditation for Environmental Lead

Mold Testing Services Include:

Non-Viable (Non-Culturable)
  • Bioaerosols: Airborne Fungal Spore Identification
  • Tape / Swab / Bulk: Direct Transfer Fungal Spore Identification

There are two major categories of mold analysis: viable and non-viable. Sometimes referred to as culturable and non-culturable, the analytical work for non-categories which rely on the identification of spores (or conidia) by light microscopy to classify the molds present.

 

Though guidance documents exist, there are no accepted national standards or benchmark values to compare against to define exposure limits, accepted ambient levels or successful remediation clearance.
