For straight forward GC-MS, LC-MS and LC-MS/MS analysis, a high volume discount is available to researchers with 33 digit codes and to non-profit and Harvard affiliated organizations. Analyzing a large number of samples together is more analytically challenging. This is because there can be column degradation and instrument sensitivity loss as concentrated samples are analyzed and the instrument gets "dirtier". Some sample cleanup is highly recommended for bulk analysis for greater reproducibility across samples.
The following high volume rates are offered to researchers from Harvard University (must have 33 digit code), Harvard-affiliated (PO) and Non-profit (PO) institutions . Please check out the list of Harvard affiliated organizations.
