Trace level analysis support is vital for any environmental research facility. A large laboratory with the state-of-the-art instrumentation is fully operational at CESE. The major instruments include: (i) Ion Chromatography (IC) for ionic analysis, with transitional metallic ions and bio-scan facility (ii) Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) with ATD (automatic thermal desorption) facility for trace organics including pesticides, aromatic hydrocarbons, PCBS, volatile organic compounds (iii) Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for analysis of all elements at nano-gram level (iv) Total Organic Carbon (TOC) for analysis of organic carbon and (v) Microwave Digestion system (MDS) for digestion of samples for metals/elements.
