Laboratory Tests for Exposure
to Toxigenic Molds
Exposure to certain types of airborne molds and their spores can
cause allergic reactions, episodes of asthma, and other
respiratory complications in individuals who are genetically or
immunologically predisposed. Greater impacts on health may occur
when individuals are exposed to large doses of the chemicals
produced by molds. These are more commonly known as mycotoxins.
Prolonged and intense exposure to toxigenic molds and mycotoxins
is associated with disorders of the respiratory and central
nervous systems, the mucous membrane, mucosal immunity, as well
as cellular and humoral immune dysfunction. Higher
concentrations may induce toxic effects that range from severe
irritation to immunosuppression and cancer.
A common problem many people face is finding a doctor who
understands the relationship between toxic mold exposure and the
symptoms experienced by those who suffer from such exposure.
