Mass Spectrometry Service Fees


We analyze samples on a first-in-first-out basis. Our goal is to provide results within 1 to 7 days depending on the complexity of the sample. If you require urgent analyses, you will need to contact us to make appropriate arrangements.

We will gladly train a student, postdoctoral fellow, staff member or faculty member, in the use of selected instruments. Only appropriately trained people will be allowed to use open-access mass spectrometers. All our fees are subject to change.
