Digital DIS-10 System Mold Inspectors and Laboratories
Mold testing for indoor fungal contamination: Digital Diagnostic Laboratories is committed to
providing environmental laboratory clients, and Digital DIS-10 System users, with the
highest quality methods, procedures, and protocols that also enable our analytical laboratory
staff to provide exceptional services at fair, and competitive pricing. The
importance of qualified, accurate, and timely data, is well understood by
our mold
laboratory personnel. All analysis is generated and documented following
strict, high standard methods and procedures, to meet or exceed, client and
industry expectations.
Mold Laboratories - Total Quality Management Systems
The goal of Digital Diagnostic Laboratories (DDL) is to provide clients
with accurate, legally defensible, analytical data and mold testing results
reporting. Total quality management systems, within the mold laboratory,
were designed in accordance with the requirements of the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) Standard ISO/IEC 17025 relevant to
the scope of testing services provided by Digital Diagnostic Laboratories.
It is the intent of DDL Labs to meet, or exceed, the QA/QC requirements set
by the USEPA, or other appropriate governmental, or private entities, and to
assure that all analytical data generated are scientifically valid,
defensible, comparable, and of known acceptable precision and accuracy. DDL is dedicated to the implementation of policies, procedures,
and protocols that communicate value, quality, and trust to our clientele.
Qualified Mold Laboratories: Staff - Microbiology - IAQ - Building Forensics
The President/CEO of
Digital Diagnostic Laboratories has over 40 years of professional
involvement in the design elements and requirements associated with indoor

Indoor Environmental Laboratory Personnel
Digital Diagnostic Laboratories takes great pride in the qualified personnel
it employs. Analysts, and support staff undergo thorough on-going training
and proficiency evaluations for analytical methodology, quality assurance,
sample handling, and laboratory documentation requirements. The
qualifications of DDL technical laboratory staff, and principal advisors and
consultants,
range from BS degrees to PhDs. The qualified project management staff are microbiologists, chemists, AIA, and
also include PhD principal
advisors and Certified Industrial Hygienist consulting. Laboratory
Analysts are required to have, at a minimum, baccalaureate degrees in
microbiology, biology, or related life sciences and under-go extensive
proficiency training to ensure the highest level of competency and
experience that is required to perform analysis.
One of the original founders of Digital Diagnostic Laboratories
accomplished over 35 years
experience in clinical and related microbiology. His extensive history in
both the ownership and operation of expert analytical laboratories has included certification by the State Department of Health
Services. DHS serves as the EPA in California for certification purposes.
Laboratories under his supervision have served as qualified resources for
laboratory related environmental and general health issues.
Advanced microscopy technology within the Digital DIS-10 System allows
Digital Diagnostic Laboratories to bring clients high quality analytical
services and legally defensible documentation and data, in real time, or in
less than 24 hours in rapid response to any sensitive environmental project,
and/or business, or customer need.
Black Mold - Toxic Mold - Rapid Fungal Contamination Reporting is Available
Digital Diagnostic Laboratories is a full service mold testing lab offering
nonviable, viable and speciation testing. Molds, black mold, or toxic
mold can only be identified by sample analysis.
The Digital DIS-10 System Mold Testing Technology
provides
Internet driven
Same Day

Identification and Quantification
Rapid Mold Testing Lab Results in Real Time, or Less Than 24 Hours
For clients in need of speciation testing, lab culture times are required at laboratories. Turn around
time for this type of testing can average two or three weeks. For fungal
analysis questions please contact the mold lab: Digital Diagnostic
Laboratories: 866-DDS-MOLD.
The Digital DIS-10 System Technology Mission Statement
The leadership of Digital Diagnostic Systems in "technical diagnostic
information exchange via the Internet" is distinguished by our primary
dedication to continuously lead the industry standard in the development of
products servicing environmental excellence, and social responsibility,
through the science of advanced microscopy technology.
Digital DIS-10 System and the Online Mold Analysis System (OMAS)
The DIS-10 System technology and OMAS creates permanent, legally defensible, easily
retrievable records, with mold photomicrographs and chain of custody.
Data Control and Record Retention
A hosting service provides DDL with superior functionality with
facilities specifically designed to supply technologically advanced hosting
for mission critical websites and applications such as those in use at DDL
with the Online Mold Analysis System (OMAS).
The cyber-center facility is staffed 24/7/365 by highly trained technical
system and network engineers. There is security staff, 24/7/365
surveillance, and restricted access. Additional information can be found on
this site's "Technology" page. All Digital Diagnostic Laboratories'
policies, procedures, and protocols ensure the security, and confidentiality
of all records. Quality Assurance programs produce quality data which is of
known precision and accuracy, and legally defensible in a court of law.
Mold Air Sampling and Mold Information
A wide variety of microorganisms, fungi/mold, can be found across many
regions in the United States. The influence of normal humidity, temperature
conditions, and concentrations of bioaerosols, and other pertinent factors, can vary
from area to area. There are no current exposure limits established for
mold. It is accepted industry practice to compare outside bioaerosols
concentrations and genus/species to inside bioaerosols concentrations
genus/species. This procedure is supported by the American Conference
of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, the American Industrial Hygiene
Association and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Guidelines. Simply
put, the indoor air flora should be quantitatively lower than, but
qualitatively similar (genus/species) to that of the outside air, and be a
reflective indicator of the present mold ecosystem.
Indoor Environmental Mold Labs: Total Quality
Management Systems
Quality Assurance programs are designed to ensure reliability in the
identification and measurement of analytical results. Programs are
maintained by rigorous attention to detail and a commitment to a thorough,
on-going QC auditing, evaluation, and improvement program. The QA/QC program
is designed to meet prescribed standards of performance in the
identification and measurement of analytical results. The QA/QC program is
based on sample documentation, analytical documentation, audits, data
review, Q/C samples, and laboratory control samples. All data are subject to
a tiered system of review and final approval by the QA/QC department. Before
results are released, and a final report is produced, the data package must
be approved to assure the client of overall analytical integrity.
