Stable Isotope Platform

The Stable Isotope Analysis Platform sits within the Stable Isotope Laboratory in the School of Environmental Sciences. The platform provides an analytical service using a Thermo Finnigan Delta plus XP IRMS for the analysis of δ¹⁵N and δ¹³C in bulk solid samples at natural abundance or enriched levels.

The Thermo Finnigan Delta plus XP IRMS is connected via a Conflo IV to Flash HT. Bulk analysis of δ¹⁵N and δ¹³C in solid samples can be used in a wide range of applications including soil science, dendrochronology, archeobotany, and microbiology.

All enquiries are welcome and should initially be addressed to Antony Hinchliffe, Instrument Platform Manager: A.Hinchliffe@uea.ac.uk
