Schedule and Fees

Pricing

This facility charges an hourly rate for analyses, regardless of number of samples submitted or analytes chosen. Analysis time will be dependent on number of individual spots or scans chosen as well as instrument set up time, any method development needed, and data processing. We no longer have daily rates for instrument usage as of June 2024. If submitted samples need preparation before analyses, this will be a separate per sample fee.
