IICRC AMRT EXAM SCRIPT 2026 UPDATED
QUESTIONS WITH DETAILED ANSWERS
GRADED A+
⩥ antimicrobial static agent. Answer: an agent that is incorporated or
applied to a product or surface to inhibit microbial growth
⩥ assessment. Answer: inspection performed by the Indoor
Environmental Professional (IEP) to formulate written recommendations
to the mold remediator.
⩥ bacteriostat. Answer: a product that suppresses bacterial growth
⩥ biocide. Answer: a chemical or physical agent that is designed to kill
or inactivate one or more group(s) of organisms
⩥ best practice. Answer: method or technique that has consistently
shown results superior to those achieved with other means, and that is
used as a benchmark
⩥ biostat. Answer: a product that suppresses living organisms
,⩥ can. Answer: term used to signify an ability or possibility to apply a
procedure but is not a component of the industry standard
⩥ Condition 1. Answer: an indoor environment that may have settled
spores, fungal fragments or traces of actual growth whose identity,
location, and quantity are reflective of a normal fungal ecology for a
similar indoor environment
⩥ Condition 2. Answer: an indoor environment that is primarily
contaminated with settled spores or fungal fragments that were dispersed
directly or indirectly from a Condition 3 area, and which may have
traces of actual growth
⩥ Condition 3. Answer: an indoor environment contaminated with the
presence of actual mold growth, associated spores, and fungal
fragments. Actual growth includes growth that is active or dormant,
visible or hidden
⩥ contaminant. Answer: any physical, chemical, biological, or
radioactive substance that can have an adverse effect on the air, water,
soil, or any interior or exterior surface
⩥ cross-contamination. Answer: the transport of contaminants in the air
from a contaminated work area to an unaffected area
, ⩥ disinfectant. Answer: a biocide that significantly reduces or kills up to
99.99% of recognized human pathogens and may kill some bacterial
spores
⩥ controlled removal. Answer: the process of removing contaminated
materials in a manner that minimizes the spread and aerosolization of
contaminants and debris
⩥ Equilibrium Relative Humidity (ERH). Answer: moisture boundary
layer; relative humidity taken at a material's surface
⩥ evaluation. Answer: inspection performed by the remediation
company to formulate written recommendations to be included in the
work plan
⩥ fungistat. Answer: a product that suppresses fungal growth
⩥ hydrophobic. Answer: does not like water
⩥ hyphae. Answer: the thread-like structure part of the mold
⩥ Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). Answer: an individual who
is qualified by knowledge, skill, education, training, certification, and
experience to perform an assessment of the fungal ecology of structures,
systems, and contents of a job site
