Welcome to the homepage of Radioanalytical laboratory of the Institute of Hygiene and Medical Ecology located at Kiev, Ukraine.
What we GUARANTEE:
14C dating is performed in our laboratory using modern conventional (LSC based) method since 1993. For all LS measurements we use LS spectrometer Quantulus 1220TM, 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.
How much material do I need and what kind of material is used on?
|
| Material | Small sample | Routine | High Precision |
| Wood | 5-8 g | 20-30 g | >150 g |
| Charcoal | 2-3 g | 5-20 g | >40 g |
| Peat | 15-20 g | 50-60 g | >300 g |
| Bone | 50 g | 150 g | >700 g |
| Humus & Soil | 100 g | 300 g | >1500 g |
| carbonate (shell) | 15-20 g | 35-40 g | >150 g |
| Pottery | Eestimation required | Estimation required | Estimation required |
All of the above are Minimum Dry weights required. Other carbon materials can be considered for 14C analyses after consultation with Dr. Michael G. Buzinny.
Please inform us about your planes for carbon dating in our laboratory prior to sample submission. We have some additional advices for samples) submission and try to produce services in short period for your convenience.
We are pleased to any direct contact. It allows maximise the effectiveness of carbon analyses and discussing sampling strategies and/or interpretation of any results.

How much? - Sample's Rate:
| Sample type | Rate |
| Wood & Charcoal | 1,0 |
| Peat | 1,3 |
| Bone | 1,3 |
| Humus & soil | 1,3 |
| shell ( carbonate) | 1,3 |

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 (28/01/2012)
#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.
Attention!
About submission:
PLEASE ask delivery adress and more details BEFORE SENDING of your samples.
All samples passing through Customs should be clearly
labeled:
"SCIENTIFIC SAMPLES - NO COMMERCIAL VALUE".
Do not
claim a total value of more than US$10.
Conventional mail is recommended.
