Top Environmental Testing Laboratory Launches

ALLERGENTESTING.COM Portal for Allergen Sufferers

Virtual Information Empowers Consumers with Dynamic eTools

SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, Aug. 13 -/E-Wire/-- EMSL Analytical, the largest network of accredited environmental testing laboratories in the nation, announced it has launched a new website AllergenTesting.com for people who want to test for potential allergens in their homes or businesses.

AllergenTesting.com offers a wealth of dynamic electronic tools (eTools) that empower consumers by allowing them access to essential information ranging from local allergen information and statistics, facts about specific household allergens, to ordering a variety of allergen test kits, and offering guidelines on how to interpret their analytical results. "There is growing concern about the potential health hazards caused by indoor allergens," states Leslie Boggs, National Director of Marketing & Public Relations for EMSL. "and we want to empower consumers by providing all the tools needed to help them improve the quality of their lives, and their loved ones."

Most people with allergies think of their home as a haven where they can escape their allergies. Unfortunately, houses and apartment buildings harbor their own allergens. The inside of your home actually traps allergens, making them impossible to avoid. Allergic disease affects one out of six Americans, and costs millions of dollars in medications, physician services and missed days from school and work.

"EMSL's assurance of analytical excellence, coupled with our deep commitment to continually provide valuable information on important issues and concerns, positions us as a valuable resource for the public." Leslie Boggs said in closing.
