Drinking Water

Our inorganic trace metals department uses the latest ICP-MS technologies to detect trace metals in waters, soils, dust filters, and shellfish biota. Working out of a custom-built laboratory that has separate areas for sample preparation, instrumental analysis, and administration, the site provides optimum conditions for low level analysis of metals.

Our laboratory offers a general suite of tests based on your water supply (bore, rain, tank, spring, creek etc.) this includes a mixture of general chemistry, microbiological and metals tests. These suites have been designed to give you an overview of your current water quality.

Microbial testing is necessary where human health is at risk of being adversely affected by biological pathogens, disease-causing bacteria, and other toxins.

Using an ion chromatograph, our general chemistry department can detect an extended range of anions at low detection limits. Flow analysis instruments also allow the team to offer customers anion testing across both saline and environmental samples.

Organic chemistry deals with the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may also include any number of other elements (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, halogens, phosphorus, silicon and sulfur).
