Welcome to the homepage of Radioanalytical laboratory of the Institute of Hygiene and Medical Ecology located at Kiev, Ukraine.
We offer conventional radiocarbon dating (analysis) services operating by benzene synthesis and liquid scintillation counting based on Quantulus LSC. It is fully-equipped laboratory, specializing in conventional ¹⁴C analyses. C14 testing lab. Responsible person – Michael Buzinny.

What we GUARANTEE:

• Good service,
• Accurate measurements,
• Quality Assurance,
• Rapid turnaround,
• Competitive prices, and
• Your confidentiality.

¹⁴C dating is performed in our laboratory using modern conventional (LSC based) method since 1993. For all LS measurements we use LS spectrometer Quantulus 1220^TM, produced by PerkinElmer (formerly Wallac Oy). Teflon vials shaped 7 ml, 3 ml, 0,8 ml allow optimize LS counting performance for benzene samples of different mass. We have performed hundreds of carbon-14 analyses for our researches and some for commercial purposes.

Let us know more about your interest and requirements. We would like to discuss a radiocarbon concerned projects and other radioisotope researches especially from early stage of planning at Kyiv 14C lab. Please send your inquiry or any ideas to Dr. Michael Buzinny. Information on sample's submitted sizes required, you could find below.

Lern: our price corresponds to required time and precision, what kind of sample is dated, corresponds to sample's size.
Ask about multi-sample discounts which are offered for batches of submitted samples for conventional radiocarbon dating. Please send your inquiry to Dr. Michael Buzinny.

Radiocarbon dating C-14 sample prices (pricing) and cost:
( Sample costs for a carbon 14 analysis )

Base price for C-14 dating is 100 Euro per sample (12/21/2012)

#1: Routine One ( separate) charcoal sample (5-10 g of Carbon or more) coming abroad costs: 100 Euro + 10 Euro for Customs formalities. When 10 similar samples - cost is 1000-10%Discount+10 Euro for Customs formalities all equals 910 Euro.

#2: Routine One ( separate) charcoal sample containing (0.5-3.0 g of Carbon) coming abroad costs:150 Euro+10 Euro for Customs formalities. When 10 similar samples cost is 1500-10%Discount+10 Euro for Customs formalities all equals 1360 Euro.

When Sample's rate is not equal to 1,0 - for all cases, the base price should be multiplied to corresponding Sample's rate.

When High Precision - for both cases, the base price should be multiplied to 1.5.
