ASTM D7391-09 "Standard Test Method for Categorization and Quantification of Airborne in an Inertial Impaction by Optical Microscopy" was used for the analysis of these samples. 20% of the sample surface (26 traverses) was viewed to count the fungal structures in the sample, unless otherwise noted. Per method, when 100 counts for a given spore type or structure is reached, the number of traverses (percent of sample surface) viewed to that point is noted, and these values are used to calculate the concentration for the given spore or structure type. This stoppage rule does not apply to water related spores- all 26 traverses are counted. The structure concentration calculation uses the percentage of the sample trace (number of traverses) viewed to count each spore or structure type and the sample air volume. The calculated structure concentrations are reported to two significant figures. The total structure concentration may not equal the sum of the individual results due to the rounding of the individual values. The detection limit for the area of the sample which was viewed is one fungal spore or structure. 400X magnification was used to view the sample, unless otherwise noted. A background debris rating of 2 to 4 indicates particulate matter may obscure a portion of the sample surface and result in underreporting of fungal structures. A background debris rating of 5 indicates the sample is overloaded with particulate matter and the fungal structures cannot be counted. A new sample should be collected at a shorter time interval, or other measures should be taken to reduce the particle load. The analysis results are not blank corrected, unless otherwise noted. Air-O-Cell slit impactor cassettes were used to collect the samples, unless otherwise stated. See the chain of custody document for sample times or volumes, the date(s) of sampling, and the date of receipt of the samples by the laboratory. The samples were received in acceptable condition unless otherwise noted on the individual sample page. The analysis relates only to the samples tested, and the "scope" of this report pertains only to those items tested and listed as such on the individual pages of this document.
