What does an Aspergillus failure mean for my batch?

It triggers mycotoxin testing, which is what determines whether the material is remediable.

Can you test the room rather than the product?

Yes. Environmental testing covers surfaces, air and water, which is usually where a repeat failure is coming from.

Mb.Microbial R&D testing

Microbial testing

Total yeast and mould, coliforms, Aspergillus, STEC and Salmonella.

Panel: Yeast & mould, coliforms, Aspergillus, STEC, Salmonella
Turnaround: 48 hours

Microbial colonies growing in a petri dish

The microbial panel is the one that closes rooms. Total yeast and mould, coliforms, Aspergillus, STEC and Salmonella are each looked for separately, because each says something different about where a problem started.

R&D, not only compliance

Run as R&D between compliance tests, a microbial panel is an early warning on a room rather than a verdict on a harvest. Most growers who test this way stop failing.
