SAN DIEGO, CA, December 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) Orange Restoration, based in San Diego, adds legally binding mold and hazardous material lab testing to their growing list of professional services. Testing services include air, surface and swab testing, testing or lead and/or asbestos and post remediation cleanup testing.

Nearly anyone can look at a black spot on a wall or ceiling and declare, you have black mold and need to have it professionally cleaned. Few companies have the expertise to perform scientific testing to confirm both the type and quantity of the contamination being observed.

Orange Restoration's certified technicians are trained to gather contaminate samples using a variety of methods and testing techniques. When mold testing is performed it is important to collect both air and surface samples to be sure that all contamination issues are addressed properly.

"It is important to us that we provide the best mold remediation services that a person can possibly receive. The mold testing that we offer goes beyond the typical restoration company's services and really puts the client first so they know the exact details of the contamination," says Bella Dosovitsky, VP of Operations for Orange Restoration.

Post mold remediation testing services are done to confirm that the material being removed has, in fact, been removed and removed properly. This service is one that can not be performed by the company that also performed the mold removal. This protects the client from the potential of a company claiming to have performed work that was either not done, or not done properly.

Orange Restoration goes beyond traditional mold testing and also performs off site lead and asbestos testing. When testing for these hazardous materials technicians carefully recover, contain, and remove a portion of the material to be tested and complete the testing in a controlled lab environment. This procedure allows the staff to safely test the material in question without risking further contamination of the site.

Orange Restoration is based in San Diego and is IICRC certified, licensed and insured. Orange Restoration offers mold remediation, flood damage and fire recovery services while using environmentally friendly materials that are 100% toxin free and safe for your children or pets.

Discovery of 2 Earth-size planets raises questions about the evolution of stars

2011-12-22

This press release is available in French. University of Toulouse and University of Montreal researchers have detected two planets of sizes comparable to Earth orbiting around an old star that has just passed the red giant stage. This planetary system is located near Lyra and Cygnus constellations at a distance of 3900 light years. This discovery, to be published by in Nature on December 22 2011, may shed new light on the destiny of stellar and planetary systems. "The two planets, named KOI 55.01 and KOI 55.02, are on very short orbits around their host star," explained ...

Researchers develop new method of cleaning toxins from the oilsands

2011-12-22

Alberta's oilsands have water challenges. Oilsands development uses a vast amount of water and even though it's recycled multiple times, the recycling concentrates the toxins and metals leftover from extracting and upgrading the bitumen, resulting in tailings ponds that are both a lightening rod for controversy and a significant risk to the environment. A research project underway between biologists at the University of Calgary and engineers at the University of Alberta to help resolve the water issue is making rapid progress toward that goal. Two years into the research, ...

Exploiting Trichoderma: From food security to biotechnology

2011-12-22

From improving food security to their use as biotechnology power horses, Trichoderma fungi are increasingly being exploited by industry. Current advances in the field are brought together and highlighted in a special issue of Microbiology published online on 27 December. Trichoderma are free-living fungi widely used in agricultural biotechnology. Some species of Trichoderma are specifically used as biocontrol agents to control plant pathogens including Fusarium species. Their success is partly due to mycoparasitism – a lifestyle where one fungus is parasitic on another ...

Self-regulation of the immune system suppresses defense against cancer

2011-12-22

It is vital that the body's own immune system does not overreact. If its key players, the helper T cells, get out of control, this can lead to autoimmune diseases or allergies. An immune system overreaction against infectious agents may even directly damage organs and tissues. Immune cells called regulatory T cells ("Tregs") ensure that immune responses take place in a coordinated manner: They downregulate the dividing activity of helper T cells and reduce their production of immune mediators. "This happens through direct contact between regulatory cell and helper cell," ...

Balancing the womb

2011-12-22

New research hopes to explain premature births and failed inductions of labour. The study by academics at the University of Bristol suggests a new mechanism by which the level of myosin phosphorylation is regulated in the pregnant uterus. The researchers, Dr Claire Hudson and Professor Andrés López Bernal in the School of Clinical Sciences and Dr Kate Heesom in the University Proteomics Facility and the School of Biochemistry, have discovered that phosphorylation of uterus proteins at specific amino acids have a key role in the regulation of uterine activity in labour. A ...

How to break Murphy's Law

2011-12-22

Murphy's Law is a useful scapegoat for human error: "If something can go wrong, it will." But, a new study by researchers in Canada hopes to put paid to this unscientific excuse for errors by showing that the introduction of verification and checking procedures can improve structural safety and performance and so prevent the application of the "law". Engineer Franz Knoll of Nicolet Chartrand Knoll Ltd., based in Montreal, Quebec, writing in the International Journal of Reliability and Safety explains that faults and flaws in any industrial product almost always originate ...

Even limited telemedicine could improve developing health

2011-12-22

A lack of infrastructure in developing countries, and particularly in rural areas, often ensures that healthcare provision is absent. Research published in the International Journal of Services, Economics and Management by a team at Howard University in Washington DC suggests a solution to this insidious problem involving the development of telemedicine. Ronald Leach and colleagues describe a highly asynchronous service model for healthcare delivery. The approach is much cheaper to implement than direct medicine and even less expensive than other approaches to telemedicine ...
