Water Samples
Gas Bench II: Samples are analyzed in 12-mL vials with septa caps, a minimum of 0.5 mL of sample water should be provided for analysis. If desired, our staff can pipette water samples to vials for a minimal charge per sample.
TC/EA: We use a GC PAL autosampler and modified reactor for liquid injections on the TC/EA. Samples should be in 2 mL screw top vials (12×32 mm) with 8mm diameter septa caps. If desired, WSU laboratory staff can pipette samples into vials for a minimal charge. In the event of small samples, vial inserts can be used.
Dissolved Nitrate (NO3–): New techniques are currently undergoing development. Please contact us for more details.
