Air Test Services

Accurate and comprehensive air testing is crucial for understanding the composition and quality of the air we breathe, as it directly impacts our health, the environment, and various industries. At CD Biosciences, we provide customized air testing services.

Introduction to Air Test

Air testing, also known as ambient air monitoring, is the systematic process of measuring and evaluating the composition and characteristics of the air in both indoor and outdoor environments. By precisely quantifying the levels of various air pollutants, we can gain crucial insights that empower organizations and communities to make informed decisions and implement effective strategies to enhance air quality.

The Significance of Air Test

Accurate and comprehensive air testing is crucial for understanding the composition and quality of the air we breathe, as it directly impacts our health, the environment, and various industries.

  • Identify and mitigate sources of air pollution, reducing the risk of respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems, and other health issues.
  • Ensure compliance with environmental regulations and industry standards, maintaining a sustainable and eco-friendly operating environment.
  • Assess the effectiveness of air purification and ventilation systems, optimizing indoor air quality for occupant comfort and productivity.
  • Monitor the impact of industrial activities, transportation, and other human-induced factors on ambient air quality.
  • Support decision-making processes related to urban planning, environmental management, and public health initiatives.

Air Toxicity Testing

In addition to assessing the composition of ambient air, CD BioSciences also offers comprehensive air toxicity testing services to identify and quantify the presence of harmful substances.

Methods of Air Test

Passive Monitoring

Using diffusion and passive sampling techniques, we can obtain the average concentrations of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, ozone, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen sulfide, benzene, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) over a specified period.

Deposition Monitoring

By determining the deposition rates of particulates and other pollutants along boundaries, we can provide valuable insights into the average pollution levels over a month-long period. Our analysis can also extend to the assessment of heavy metals, dioxins, and furans in the deposited samples.

Particulate Matter Measurement

We precisely quantify the concentrations of total suspended particulates (TSP), as well as the inhalable fine particulates (PM-10 and PM-2.5) that are subject to regulation due to their potential health impacts. Our high-volume sampling techniques ensure accurate data collection for these critical air quality indicators.

Canister Sampling

We employ evacuated canisters to collect air samples, either through instantaneous or integrated sampling methods. Instantaneous sampling provides a "snapshot" of air quality, while integrated sampling over longer periods yields time-weighted average concentrations, allowing us to better understand the dynamic nature of air quality.

Why Choose Us?

By analyzing these air quality indicators, CD BioSciences can help our clients understand the composition and potential toxicity of the air, enabling them to make informed decisions and implement effective strategies to safeguard public health and the environment.
