David Kahane
Forensic Analytical

Dave Kahane will provide a presentation on science’s most intriguing tool, and it’s use for quantification and speciation of molds during water intrusion investigations, renovation or construction activities. The capability of QPCR (Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction) was recognized by the EPA some years ago and led to the development of primers and probes specifically targeted to commonly encountered water intrusion molds. What revolutionized the field of forensic science now affects the way we practice industrial hygiene when dealing with bioaerosols, particularly in high risk populations. Come take a peek into the future.
