Abstract

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for remediating embedded microbiological contaminants, e. g. , mold, fungus and bacteria. The method includes the step of exposing an embedded microbiological contaminant to a gas, e. g. , chlorine dioxide or ethylene gas, thereby remediating the microbiological contaminant.
