Actino:
The most frequent species of bacteria found in buildings damaged by water are Actino this is the type of bacteria that produces biotoxins similar to mycotoxin in the mold. In general, the biotoxins of bacteria by weight and mass are much more important than, say, mycotoxins. The test is based on the microbial identification of all bacteria in the sample. The Actino test was developed by selecting the 40 main species of Actino in the sample to create a score for Building-related Disease (BRI) situation.
The species included in the score have been reported in multiple studies that link them to BRI.
Score System:
| Score | Score Range | Interpretation |
| Q1 | 9 or below | Indicative of a Healthy Building |
| Q2 | Between 10 to 15 | Further investigation needed |
| Q3 | Greater than 15 | Suggestive for Building-Related Illness |
