The American Relative Moldiness Index (ARMI)

The ARMI is a DNA mold analysis that detects 13 species of mold and provides a moldiness index of the building tested. Organisms included in this assay are: Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus ochraceus, Aspergillus penicillioides, Aspergillus restrictus, Aspergillus sydowii, Chaetomium globosum, Eurotium amstelodami, Paecilomyces variotii, Penicillium chrysogenum, Wallemia sebi, Alternaria alternata, Cladosporium cladosporioides, and Cladosporium herbarum. This test is more comprehensive than the Mold Investigator, but not as comprehensive as the ERMI mold test.  ARMI’s a good value for more advanced analysis. Sampling device included with purchase.
