| • |
12 Isotope Ratio Spectrometers equipped for both compound specific isotope
analysis of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen isotopes and high-precision dual inlet analysis of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. |
| • |
All instruments are installed in a dedicated room with uninterruptible power supply and a back-up generator to ensure that samples will not be lost due to a power failure during analysis. |
| • |
23 Gas Chromatographs for compositional analysis of gases and for preparation of gas samples for isotopic analysis of different species;several are interfaced with vacuum systems for sample preparation. |
| • |
Four Low Level Liquid Scintillation Spectrometers in a temperature-controlled environment for Beta counting of tritium.
|
| • |
Picarro CRDS laser for water isotope analysis.
|
 Electrolytic enrichment for low-level tritium analysis is carried out in glass electrolysis cells cooled in a refrigerated water bath.
In addition to routine laboratory facilities such as drying ovens and fume hoods, Isotech maintains numerous glass and metal vacuum systems for various sample preparation procedures.
