Turn Around Times

Current turn around time for jobs with approximately 100 samples is about 4-6 weeks. For more than 300 samples, please contact Dr. Sharma at uwyosif@uwyo.edu; 307-766-5021 to get an estimate of the turn around time.  For small batches of samples with 50 or less samples special arrangements can be made for faster analysis. Other samples, which require labor-intensive methods such as Hydrogen analysis by Zn reduction, turn around times will vary depending on number of samples. Longer turn around times are to be expected when analyses require switching of peripheral devices. This applies to the use of the TC/EA (refer to the schedule below) and PreCon devices. Please consult with Dr. Sharma before submitting samples for these types of analyses.

Investigators must consult with Dr. Sharma (uwyosif@uwyo.edu; 307-766-5021) before submitting ISOTOPICALLY ENRICHED samples. Special precautions, rates and turnaround times may apply.

The TC/EA (18O and 2H) and the EA (13C and 15N) are attached to the same Mass Spec., because of this we have implemented the following schedule for switching over to the TC/EA from the EA.  Please take special note of the deadlines for submitting samples for analysis on the TC/EA.

Schedule for EA and TC/EA

EA is in black, TC/EA is in red, and TC/EA sample submission deadline is highlighted in red.
