Our mold test kit media
for Drop Out Plating is is specially formulated for us
by Micrology Laboratories. The high pH media drops out many Fungi
that prefer low pH media, with the target of the recovery being
Fungus which prefer high pH media; the low pH media drops out
many Fungi that prefer high pH media, with the target of the
recovery being Fungi which prefer low pH media.
Mold test
Kit or Yeast/Candida Test Kit?
The difference between
a Mold test kit and Yeast/Candida Test Kit is not in the media
or the physical characteristic of the test kit but in the procedure,
or method of use, and the objective or target organisms. Mold
test kits are concerned with Filamentous and Non-filamentous
Molds and are many times surface samples of mold growth or
air samples by settling plate or in-line filter cassette. Heating
the media is normally not needed unless thermally dimorphic Fungi
is suspected.

Our Yeast/Candida
test kit media for Drop Out Plating is specially formulated for
us by Micrology Laboratories.
- The diluent is important
in this method.
- Note the time, date
and sample label on the Petri dish tape strips on the top of
the Petri dish. Clean your hands well.
- Open one alcohol swab;
leave the swab in the package allow the alcohol to evaporate
and the swab to dry.
- Use the other alcohol
swab to sterilize a pair of scissors and cut the alcohol swab
in two equal pieces.
- Swab the area of your
body to be tested; if testing under a fold of skin, lift the
excess skin away from the area to be swabbed.
- Insert the sample swabs
into the 10ml diluent.
- Allow to stand for
two minutes.
- Divide the diluent
equally between the red
and amber media.
- Remove the tape that
wraps the Peter dishes; hang the tape so you can reuse the tape
to safety reseal the Petri dishes.
- Remove the top of the
Petri dish.
- Now pour the red media into 1 Petri dish, replace the top on the
now poured Petri dish.
- Now pour the amber media into the other Petri dish
and replace the top of the Petri dish.
- Do not move the Petri
dishes; allow 45 plus minutes for the media to harden.
- Safety tape the now
poured Petri dishes.
- Place Petri dishes
In the Laboratory In A Box(TM) Mold Test Kit incubator box.
- Open in 48 hours and
see what is growing.
- Convert the Laboratory
In A Box(TM) Mold Test Kit incubator box into a photo stand.
- Send us a photo.

This Mold Test
Kit is modern just developed, made to be a mycologist in a bottle
mold test kit. Our modern methods and protocols, coupled with
Easygel ® chemical technology, makes it possible for you
to test your home or body easily. The growth of your samples
will be able to be seen in 48 hours. You may then take photographs
of your petri dishes and email the photos to fimlab@yahoo.com
and we will let you know what we see in the photos. Yeast can
often be easily distinguished but not identified as to species,
molds are easy to distinguish from yeast.

Mold Testing, Mold Test Kits and Mold Reports
A word to consumers about mold test kits. Testing anything
for the presences of mold and yeast with the expectation of information
that will deliver true benefit is difficult and expensive. Mold
test kits that are offered for sale on this web site are not
for consumers. Most mold inspectors are not qualified to use
our mold test kits. Mold test kits are sold or given away to
get you to spend money for laboratory analysis which is more
expensive and profitable that the mold test kit. Analysis of
mold teat kits and air sampling spore traps is mostly unreliable.
No spore trap test should be relied on as to accurate analysis
without viable confirmation especially for Stachybotrys a filamentous
mould.

Yeast Facts |

Yeast and Yeast like organisms are members of the family of Fungi.
The kingdom of Fungi is understudied.
Recently Yeast has earned attention from the medical community.
Yeast is an opportunistic pathogen.
The Yeast Candida causes too many illnesses to be listed here.
The Yeast Candida appears more frequently in morbidity and mortality
reports than all the filamentous and non-filamentous moulds.
Yeast is disseminated in the air by humans and pets.
Breathing too much yeast is just as bad for you as breathing
too much mould.
To effectively capture Yeast for air quality testing purposes,
you must use a cellouse filter cassette.
Yeast recovery for culture from a cellouse filter cassette requires
Fungi Culture Protocol that use Hypotonic Culture in the recovery
process.
To remove yeast and yeast like organisms from the air in a dwelling
you must biowash the air. |

Air samples by settling
plate Laboratory In A Box(TM) Mold Test Kit:
- Note the time, date
and sample label on the Petri dish tape strips on the top of
the Petri dish.
- Get a large towel and
lie the towel where you are going take the settling plate sample.
- Remove the tape that
wraps the Peter dish; hang the tape so you can reuse it to safety
re-seal the Petri dishes.
- Set the two Petri dishes
side by side on the towel. Open the dishes, placing the tops
down without turning them over.
- Using distilled water
in a spray bottle, mist the air over (and well above) the open
Petri dishes with 4 or 5 sprays.

The
Easygel® petri dish: a 3 dimensional hypotonic
culture environment.
Euclidian (3-Dimensional) Culture
(top,middle,bottom) for the Optimum Recovery of Fungal Moulds
and Yeast.
Fungal Optimum Recovery: using
the most favorable or desirable medium for the act of obtaining
the greatest number of culturable fungal organisms from all sources:
a tangible benefit.
Easygel® 3-Dimensional
Culture: Liquid isotropic culture in vitro (an elicitor) to satisfy
turgidity* requirements(nutrient uptake) of microorganisms through
liquid suspension.
Rheological Analysis: Isotropic,
Constant Shear Anisotropic Time-Dependent**/Temperature-Independent
Timed-Transformational Solid***.
*Turgor pressure or turgidity
is the positive internal pressure in a cell resulting from osmotic
pressure. i.e. the hydrostatic pressure produced by a solution
in a space divided by a differentially permeable membrane due
to a differential in the concentration of solute. Wikipedia
**The anisotropy decays when
the poured Easygel® equalizes in the petri dish; relaxation
time is seconds, returning to the quiescent state.
***Timed-Transformational Solid:
varies, 15 - 30 minutes; relaxes to isotropic condition minimal.
