    Air Scan - Detecting mold without sampling

    "Air Scan is a technology that couplex Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) to determine compounds in the air.... Air Scan can be used to determine volatile componds ranging from simple gases such as CO, HCl, HF, and COS, to complex organic compounds such as camphor, menthol, and naphthalene. Calibration curves are main-tained for more than 50 compounds to provide quantitative determinations. In-house library reference data is maintained for an additional 200 compounds to provide semiquantitative determinations." -- This link was checked on Dec. 2006Mold Report
