Project description

ISOFYS (Isotope Bioscience Laboratory) is specialized in the analysis of stable isotopes of light elements. To remain state-of-the-art in isotope ratio spectrometry (IRMS) and to resolve major bottlenecks in two analytical lines ISOFYS needs to extend its analytical instrumentation with a new generation IRMS detector and a new gas chromatograph interface.
