Typically yes, but not neccesarilly. Penicillium is usually one of the first colonisers of water damaged surfaces and therefore if you just had a leak and it hasn been there too long than it is quite likely to be penicillium. However the color is nothing to go by. All moulds are prety much black, braown-is or green-is on the building materials and there is approximately 100 typicla indoor moulds and well over 50 000 environmental molds. So as you cna see coulour can not be used by itself for mould identification. Minimum a look though a microscope s required to be able to identidy a genus of a mould.

For your seocnd question how bad it is it depends of these factos
* your personal sensitivity
* preexisting health conditions
* the amount of mould you are exposed to
* and the duration of the mould exposue

The mould clenaing was carried out to a level where no mould was present on the building materials , as it would be expected under normal conditions. The remocla was carried out under controlled condition to prevent mould spore contamiantion of other areas. we have also carried out post remediation compliance testing to certify the clean and to ensure that mould spores are at normal levels.

Dont you worry Ray. the hospital took good care to manage the contamiantion , we did a pretty god job to sanitase the areas. and beside the affected areas were well away from any sensitive areas. It was just a construction blunder which was quickly rectified, nothing to worry about to much.
