About

Lancaster University awarded a contract to Shimadzu UK Limited for the supply of a total organic carbon analyser for the Soils and Ecosystem Ecology Laboratory within the Lancaster Environment Centre.

The instrument is capable of measuring total organic and inorganic carbon simultaneously with total nitrogen in river and run-off water samples and extracted soil samples.

The purchase replaces a nearly 20-year-old analyser and supports the laboratory's research and teaching activities for over 20 academic staff, postdoctoral researchers, PhD students, and more than 20 annual undergraduate and master's dissertation students.

The contract value is £44,000.

The work is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund Programme 2014 to 2020.
