• All samples submitted to the Mass Spectrometry Facilities must be accompanied by a Sample Submission Form (PDF or MS-Word).
• Supervisor’s signature and account number are required. Another alternative is for the supervisor to send a request in writing to your department chair, or Dr. Siming Wang indicating that it is allowed for people in his/her group to submit samples for MS analysis without authorization signature.
• All other information in the form is to help the staff to select the appropriate instruments and techniques for analyzing the samples.
• Samples should be submitted into the sample submission box outside of NSC 438A.
• If the sample needs special handling or needs immediate attention, the Facilities staff should be contacted prior to sample submission for advanced arrangement.
• In general, samples are analyzed based on the order in which they are received, unless advanced arrangements have been made.
• The MS analysis report will be sent to the sample submitter by an attachment through e-mail.
