  4. Sample Submission and Price 1. Analysis of carbonate samples: samples should be submitted as powders (~200 to 400 µg) in microcentrifuge vials Price per sample: $15 (analysis include d13C and d18O) Analysis via Kiel IV in Delta V-Plus mass spectrometer 2. Analysis of organic matter: samples should be submitted as powders in tin capsules ready to run. Price per sample: $10 (analysis include d13C, d15N, %C, %N) Analysis via Costech (NA 2000) elemental analyzer 3. Analysis of water samples: ready to run Price per sample: $17 (analysis include d18O and dD) Analysis via TC/EA 4. Analysis of solid samples: only samples ready for analysis Price per sample: $17 (analysis include d18O, dD, %O, %H) Analysis via TC/EA NOTE: If you need advice on sample preparation and amount of samples needed for each type of analysis contact us at our addressees The prices above are only for internal (UNLV) customers. Contact us for external rates. Laboratory Equipment: The laboratory is equipped with state of the art stable isotope mass spectrometer and peripheral devices which include ThermoElectron Delta V Advantage Mass Spectrometer, Kiel IV automated carbonate preparation device, Costech NA 2000 Elemental Analyzer, and ThermoElectron High Temperature Conversion Elemental Analyzer (TC/EA). Both the Costech NA 2000 and the TC/EA are interfaced to the mass spectrometer through the Conflo III system. ThermoElectron Delta V Advantage Mass Spectrometer with GC PAL autosampler and equilibration modules: The instrument is automated for oxygen and hydrogen isotope analyses in water; carbon, and oxygen isotope analysis in carbonates; and carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis in solid organic matter. Kiel IV Automated Carbonate Device: is very unique for its highest level of precision and accuracy. The system is equipped with temperature controlled oven, acid tank, an autosampler and many new automated sample preparation tools. Costech NA 2000 Elemental Analyzer with zero-blank autosampler: is based on the reliable flash combustion technology for complete combustion of solid samples and automated analyses of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and sulfur. ThermoElectron High Temperature Combustion Elemental Analyzer (TC/EA) with zero-blank autosampler: automated analyses of solids and liquids for oxygen and hydrogen isotopes in minerals, soils, sediments and water samples by thermal conversion in the absence of oxygen. Analytical Capability: The laboratory is capable of analyzing carbonate samples, organic matter, water samples for isotope and elemental analysis. The system is configured through the ISODAT III software for a rapid automated high precision analysis of isotope ratios of 18O/16O, 13C/12C, 15N/14N, and D/H generated from a wide variety of geological and biological materials. Other than isotope analysis the laboratory is also capable of performing analysis of % C, % N, %H, %O and %S. Please contact us for questions on your specific analysis requirements.
