If the Environmental Consultant is a general practitioner, the Microbial Consultant is a specialist – a professional who concentrates on diagnosis and treatment in a single area of expertise: microbial contamination. Though mold is only one of many potential causes of IAQ problems, it presents unique challenges to building owners and facilities managers, and is therefore a crucial area of concern. The Microbial Consultant relies on detailed scientificfic knowledge of microbial agents to identify and account for microbial contamination and to recommend appropriate remediation strategies. The Consultant’s field experience in the design and execution of sampling regimens and his or her ability to interpret results responsibly allow him or her to conduct meaningful microbial investigations and to verify the results of remediation projects.
