Follow on Google News | Mystery Odor Causes Medical Clinic to Temporarily Shut their DoorsEMSL Analytical provides odor identification services to help identify and resolve mystery odor complaints.
By: EMSL The May incident was not the first at the clinic. Employee complaints began in March, but odors were noticed last fall. The state Department of Environmental Protection was called in to investigate and perform tests that came up with no culprits. It is unclear if the odors are coming from within the property or are the result of another source. The article questions whether a nearby zinc smelting operation could be the cause or if it could be related to natural gas drilling that is going on in the area. Mystery odors occur on a regular basis and can be caused by a wide range of reasons that can occur both within a building or infiltrate a structure from an outside source. At times they are easy for professionals to identify. Other times they can be a real challenge, requiring air sampling to help pinpoint the source of the odor. One of the nation’s foremost testing laboratories for analyzing mystery odor samples is EMSL Analytical, Inc. The company has access to the latest field sampling equipment, laboratory testing equipment and world renowned scientists. “Mystery odor complaints occur on a daily basis across the country,” reported Joe Frasca, Senior Vice President, Marketing at EMSL Analytical. “Sometimes they are the result of harmless vapors and other times there can be real health concerns from hazardous gases. Air sampling during an occurrence can identify the chemical makeup of the air and help pinpoint its source,” he continued.
