January 23, 2004—Environmental Microbiology Laboratory, Inc. has joined forces with TestAmerica Environmental Services, LLC. This will allow EMLab to provide a broader range of services and more locations to better serve the changing needs of its clients. Headquartered in San Bruno, California, EMLab is a premier mold and bacterial testing laboratory in the United States. TestAmerica is the second-largest environmental laboratory in the United States and is based in Asheville, North Carolina.
EMLab clients now have immediate access to TestAmerica’s wide-ranging environmental testing services and geographic coverage. Starting in February, EMLab clients will have the convenience of submitting their mold samples at TestAmerica facilities, to be forwarded to EMLab’s headquarters in San Bruno for analysis. Over time, rush services will be available through MicroLABs run by EMLab(TM), but located in TestAmerica facilities. Also, EMLab clients can take advantage of other IAQ analytical services through TestAmerica.
TestAmerica specializes in tests to detect trace level organic and inorganic contaminants in soil, water, sludge, and air samples that are shipped from industrial processing and other sites that are being investigated, monitored, or remediated for the presence of harmful substances. TestAmerica also performs drilling and air emissions testing.
