Analytical Services
High-precision laboratory testing for environmental, biological, and geological samples.
Isochem Solutions provides advanced analytical services through our partnership with the Wollongong Isotope Geochronology Laboratory (University of Wollongong). We offer accurate, research-grade isotopic and elemental analyses for a wide range of applications.
Our Services
Isotopic Analysis
High-precision isotopic measurements for environmental, geological, archaeological, and clinical research.
Capabilities include:
Calcium isotopes (δ⁴⁴/⁴²Ca)
Strontium isotopes (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)
Uranium–thorium isotopes (U–Th disequilibrium)
Lithium, boron, magnesium, zinc, copper isotopes
Sample types: water, soils, fossils, carbonates, biological fluids, tissue, sediments
Trace Metal Analysis
Quantification of major, minor, and trace elements using ICP-MS and LA-ICP-MS.
Applications include:
Environmental contamination
Soil and sediment geochemistry
Biological and clinical samples
Metal distribution in tissues and archaeological remains
Water and Soil Chemistry
Comprehensive chemical characterisation for environmental assessments.
Services:
Major ions and trace metals
pH, EC, TDS, alkalinity
Nutrients (N, P, S where needed)
Sediment geochemistry and mineralogical indicators
Biological & Clinical Sample Analysis
Specialised testing for biomedical, sports-science, and clinical research.
Capabilities:
Calcium isotope measurements (bone health assessment)
Trace metal profiling
Biochemical markers (in collaboration with clinical labs)
Urine, serum, plasma, hair, nail, tissue
Reporting & Deliverables
Every analytical project includes:
Customised sampling and preparation workflow
Full QA/QC documentation
Calibration and standardisation details
Clear tables, figures, and interpretation (optional)
Turnaround times depend on project scale and sample type.
Analytical Enquiries
Isochem Solutions provides specialised isotope and trace-element analyses using advanced mass spectrometry and laser ablation techniques.
Because analytical feasibility depends strongly on sample matrix, element/isotope of interest, and the availability of suitable reference materials, we ask that all analytical enquiries include the following information:
Sample type and matrix (e.g., water, soil, rock, biological tissue, metal)
Number of samples
Elements or isotopes of interest
Expected concentration range, if known
Required timeline
