Microanalysis Lab Service Rates (web)

Microanalysis Lab services and rates - used on https://scs.illinois.edu/microanalysis/rates

The lab strives to have the lowest cost for analysis each year. Rates will vary somewhat year-to-year depending on operating expenses. Please call or email if you need accurate cost estimates. The costs for analyses are broken into three categories – University of Illinois (including UI-Springfield and UI-Chicago), Non-UI Academic Users, and Commercial.

 

Important! – Sample Submission Instructions

Also please remember that Non-UI Academic and Commercial clients need to have a signed Technical Testing Agreement (contact: scs-microlab@illinois.edu to get a copy) filed with us prior to our receiving and analyzing your samples.
