Expert Response
Thanks for reaching out. I'm not aware of a lab that runs this type of test (most labs are testing plants for fertility or herbicide contamination but not air quality contamination.)
I recommend reaching out the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. They have experts on air quality and auto pollution on staff and can best help direct your question.
