Equipment
The lab is currently equipped with two mass spectrometers, three elemental analyzers, two zero-blank autosampler and one PN 150 autosampler, Conflo II and Conflo III interfaces, two high-precision balances, a ball mill grinder, a drying oven and a freeze drier.
Elemental Analyzers are interfaced to the Finnigan Delta Plus mass spectrometer via the Conflo II and to the Finnigan Delta Plus XP mass spectrometer via the Conflo III. The PN150 autosampler is utilized with the NC2500 for C&N analysis on both Mass specs. The zeroblank autosamplers are utilized with both the Costech 4010 and TC/EA. The Costech 4010 is used for C&N analysis on both mass spectrometers. Hydrogen analysis is done with the TC/EA and Delta XP.
