We provide the mass spectrometry to enable you to determine the 13C and 15N delta (or Atom %) concentration of your samples. We use Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS) using a continuous flow IRMS mass spectrometer with a solid liquid preparation unit. This is technique is useful for tracing pathways and uptake within your samples. The following provides some information about the possibilities and the limitations of these analyses. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact us.
Mass Spectrometry is the study of isotopes and their behaviour. Mass Spectrometry differentiates isotopes on the basis of their mass to charge ratio. ...more...
All mass spectrometers count the number of atoms of the chosen isotopes, which are differentiate on the basis of their mass to charge ratio how the Mass Spectrometer (MS) achieve this varies with the type of instrument. ..more...
In preparing samples there are a couple of fundamental requirements to be met if your are to obtain good results. The first, the simplest and the most important is cleaningness. As you are measuring very small quantities, contamination can easily occur. Further to this you need to meet some instrumental requirements. ....more ....
Sample costs are based on the number of capsule combusted. What you wish to measure from each combustion needs to be decided before the samples are run. ....more...
Interpreting your results needs to be in the context of your experiment. ..more...
