We are accredited in accordance with ISO 17025 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories). Read more about accreditation here.
What can be done accredited?
Analyses for:
metals
nutrient salts
organotin
support parameters
In addition:
sampling
profile measurements with CTD
We are, in the institute, involved in several accreditated analyses and all documents in the accreditation system are collected in a document management system.
Our methods are regularly verified by participating in QUASIMEME (twice a year) and when visited by DANAK (approximately every 15 months)
Instruments, equipment and methods
At the Department we have various instruments, equipment and methods:
ICP-MS
nuclear absorption instruments
nuclear fluorescence equipment for natural-level metal analysis
GC-PFPD for measuring organotin in marine samples; animals, plants, sediment and seawater
segmented flow autoanalysis for measuring nutrient salts in seawater
support parameters: - TOC (with CHN analyzer) - incandescent and dry matter (DS 204mod) in sediment - length-weight relationships for mussels and fish
ICP-MS for metal analyses / AU-photo
