Our biogeochemical analysis laboratory performs analyses of soil and plant material as well as of water and gas samples for both internal and external customers.
Our biogeochemical analysis laboratory performs analyzes of soil and plant material as well as water and gas samples for both internal and external customers. Today we can offer the following analysis:
Ammonium, nitrate and phosphate in water and in soil extracts by Autoanalyzer
Carbon dioxide, methane and N2O in gas samples by gas chromatography
Nitrogen- and phosphorus in plant material (Kjeldahl digested) with Autoanalyzer
Anioner in water by ion chromatography
pH and conductivity in surface waters
Total carbon and total nitrogen in water
Total carbon and total nitrogen in soil and plant samples
PLFA in soil samples
Elemental analysis (C and N) solids and liquids
Stabile carbon and nitrogen isotopes in plant, water and soil samples (SLU Stable Isotope Laboratory, SSIL)
Stabile carbon and nitrogen isotopes in gas samples (SLU Stable Isotope Laboratory, SSIL)
Stabile oxygen and hydrogen isotopes in water samples (SLU Stable Isotope Laboratory, SSIL)
Sample preparation at BALStable carbon and nitrogen isotopes in specific compounds, Compound-Specific Isotope Analysis (SLU Stable Isotope Laboratory (SSIL)
In addition to these analyses, perform laboratory also regularly commissioned as grinding, weighing and processing of samples.
