Environmental Survey Mold Index
The mold index is a quantitative representation of the growth environment for mold and is an index used to predict mold contamination.
If the indoor environment is conducive to mold growth, residents only notice the mold contamination when it becomes visible. By the time they realize it, mold spores have already dispersed into the indoor air from the contaminated areas. If it were possible to know in advance whether the environment is suitable for mold growth, measures could be taken before suffering damage from mold. Therefore, we developed a method to use living mold itself as an environmental sensor, quantitatively displaying the environment based on its growth rate, which we named the "fungal index." The author continues to conduct environmental surveys using the fungal index.
