About the Black Mold Exposure Test (IgG)
The Black Mold Exposure Test (IgG) measures immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against several molds associated with damp indoor environments, including Stachybotrys chartarum, often called black mold. Unlike IgE allergy tests, IgG antibodies generally reflect immune exposure rather than allergy, so a positive result suggests that your immune system has encountered the mold at some point. This test is used when a provider wants to assess possible mold exposure. IgG results can be difficult to interpret, so they should always be reviewed with a healthcare provider alongside your symptoms and environment.
What this test measures
- Stachybotrys chartarum IgG Measures IgG antibodies that react to Stachybotrys chartarum, often called black mold.

Who this test may be right for

- Individuals with symptoms their provider suspects may relate to damp indoor environments.
- People living or working in buildings with visible mold or water damage.
- Anyone whose provider has recommended mold exposure testing.

- No fasting is required.
- Continue your usual medications unless a healthcare provider advises otherwise.
- Follow the sample collection guidance provided with your kit.
- Describe your home or work environment, including any visible mold or water damage.
Understanding your results
The report shows IgG antibody levels for each mold tested. Because IgG reflects exposure rather than allergy, a positive result suggests your immune system has encountered the mold but does not confirm that it causes your symptoms. Many people have IgG antibodies to common molds without being unwell, so results must be interpreted carefully with your history and environment. Discuss any positive or unexpected result with a healthcare provider, who can advise on appropriate next steps and whether further evaluation is needed.
