Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by yeasts that belong to the genus Candida. There are over 20 species of Candida yeasts that can cause infection in humans, the most common of which is Candida albicans.
LEARN MORECladosporium herbarum
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Cladosporium, a well known trigger for asthmatic attacks, is one of the most widespread molds.
Cladosporium includes about 40 species naturally found in soil, on decaying plant material and as plant pathogens.
In an indoor environment, Cladosporium spp. occur as secondary wall colonizers, appearing after the primary ones such as Penicillium species, Aspergillus versicolor and Wallemia sebi. Cladosporiumis very common on wet building material (e.g., gypsum board, acrylic painted walls, wood, wallpaper, carpet and mattress dust, HVAC fans, and wet insulation in mechanical cooling units).
LEARN MOREEpicoccum purpur
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Epicoccum can colonize an extremely wide variety of substrates. It lives in soil all over the world and is often associated with aging or decaying plant material. It is also a phytopathogen, causing leaf spot disease in many plants. It is an agent of food spoilage and has been known to develop on apples, cantaloupes, fresh vegetables, nuts and cereals, rice, wheat, maize, pecans, peanuts, cashews, soybean and frozen or cured meats. Interestingly Epicoccum can also colonize freshwater and marine environments and has been isolated from sediment, sponges, algae and other sea plants.
LEARN MOREFusarium proliferatum
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Members of the genus Fusarium are ubiquitous fungi commonly found in soils and plants.
Fusarium proliferatum can be found on a wide host range as well as pathogenic on various agricultural crops. Fusarium proliferatum is a common pathogen infecting numerous crop plants and occuring in various climatic zones.
LEARN MOREMucor racemosus
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/LPenicillium chrysogen
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Penicillium Chrysogenum is a widely studied species of Penicillium that is most famous for being a source of penicillin and several other antibiotics.
LEARN MOREPhoma betae
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Phoma is a very common soil fungus attacking weak or damaged plants. It is frequently isolated from different soils, dead plant tissues and potato. Phoma is frequently found indoors as a contaminator of humid surfaces, in connection with bio-deterioration of painted walls; producing colored spots, often pink or purple, several centimeters in diameter.
LEARN MORESetomelanomma rostrat
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Setomelanomma/Helminthosporium almost always occurs seasonally and the spores are released on dry, hot days. Species of Helminthosporium are best known as parasites of cereals and grasses. It is frequently isolated from grains, grasses, sugar cane, soil and textiles.
- Found worldwide, most common in warm areas, especially in the southern U.S.
- Important in the Midwest as it grows on farm crops, especially corn.
- Grain thrashing operations release large quantities.
LEARN MOREStemphylium herbarum
Optimal range: 0 - 0.1 kU/L
Together with Alternaria, Stemphylium is considered one of the most important mould allergens in the United States.
