Actino Dust®

Laboratory: EnviroBiomics

$245.00

Are the targeted Actinobacteria present in the submitted dust, and at what measured levels?

Actinobacteria are a broad group of bacteria found in soil, dust, and building environments. This test provides quantitative DNA information for the Actino option in the submitted dust; it is different from endotoxin and from Streptomycetes sequencing.

What does Actino Dust® tell you?

The laboratory measures selected Actinobacteria DNA markers in submitted dust, distinct from mold-DNA, endotoxin, and mycotoxin measurements.

The provider describes quantitative actinobacterial DNA analysis for the submitted dust. Read the laboratory quantity, sample context, and report qualifiers; it is not an endotoxin result or a personal-dose measurement.

What should you do with the results?

You already know of a building concern

A known contamination or moisture condition should be investigated and addressed directly, not delayed for one marker result.

A reported target or measurement

Interpret the reported Actinobacteria markers for the submitted dust sample with the building history. A DNA finding alone does not locate a source or measure what someone inhaled.

A target is not detected or a value is lower

Read the target, unit, method, sample, and any laboratory qualifier. A non-detect or lower value is limited to the submitted sample; it does not establish the condition of unsampled areas or create whole-property clearance.

The sample is invalid or insufficient

An invalid or insufficient sample is not a non-detect. Follow the laboratory’s support and recollection instructions before drawing a conclusion.

Product Details

What's included

The selected laboratory analysis and report for the submitted sample. Confirm the collection and turnaround choices in the order form.

Targets or materials measured

The Actino Dust analytical panel for the represented dust sample.
The separate vendor Cyano configuration is not included in the purchase.

How to collect the sample

For the Swiffer Kit, collect dust from suitable hard surfaces with the supplied material. For the Vacuum Kit, collect dust with the laboratory-approved vacuum method. Follow the instructions for the exact kit selected; do not mix methods.

Understanding laboratory results

Important limitations

The result represents the submitted sample and selected targets. It does not by itself establish current airborne exposure, personal dose, medical causation, whole-property safety, or remediation clearance.

Shipping and return

Outbound kit shipping is calculated separately at checkout when ordering is available. Follow the instructions supplied for the selected kit to return the sample.
