		National Allergy Bureau: Certified Stations The following are the professionals of the AAAAI certified counting stations, who volunteer their time and effort to provide the highest quality of information. Most states have one or more pollen counters that report their findings to the NAB. Please note: Pollen counters are not available in every state. Choose a state: AL AR CA CO CT DC FL GA ID IL IN KY LA MA MD MI MN MO NC ND NE NJ NM NV NY OH OK ON OR PA SC TN TX UT WA WI WV In order to become a member of the National Allergy Bureau, members are required to become certified and to maintain their certification. The AAAAI certification program requires participants to accurately identify and count pollen and mold spores on at least three quality control slides. Once certified, a station must collect samples a minimum of three days per week using either a Burkard volumetric spore trap, a Kramer-Collins sampler, or a Rotorod sampler. The sampler must be situated on an unobstructed rooftop at least one story above ground with no local pollen and/or mold spore sources.
