Glucan

Laboratory: EnviroBiomics

$162.00

What level of (1→3)-β-D-glucan is present in the submitted environmental dust?

(1→3)-β-D-glucan is a glucose-chain material found in fungal and other biological cell walls. This test measures it in submitted environmental dust; the exact configured assay requires current laboratory confirmation.

What does Glucan tell you?

The laboratory measures (1→3)-β-D-glucan in submitted environmental dust.

Read the reported glucan quantity and assay stated on the fulfilled laboratory report. The provider discusses more than one glucan approach, so the exact configured assay must be confirmed before a method-specific claim is published.

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

Review the reported glucan measurement and method for the submitted dust alongside site observations. It does not identify an active source or measure current airborne levels.

A numeric result is reported

Read the reported value with its unit, sample basis, method, and laboratory reference information. Reference categories are context for that method, not universal personal-health or property-safety thresholds.

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

Laboratory analysis of the represented dust sample for 1→3 beta-D-glucan.

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

Read the reported glucan quantity and assay stated on the fulfilled laboratory report. The provider discusses more than one glucan approach, so the exact configured assay must be confirmed before a method-specific claim is published.

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.
