Facilities
The Environmental Analysis Laboratory听is housed in the Chemistry & Natural Sciences
Building located at the corner of Northeast Drive and University Avenue. This part
of CNSB was specifically designed for the laboratory when the building was constructed
in 1982. Because the staff was able to have input into the original design, the facility
has continued to serve the lab well for over thirty years.

Testing Capabilities
Instrumentation:听 State of the art scientific testing equipment is utilized for the analysis of samples
in this laboratory. A few examples of equipment housed in the 不良研究所 Environmental Analysis
Laboratory include Inductively Coupled Plasmas, and Flow Injection Mercury Systems.
听
Soil Testing:听 Samples are routinely analyzed for existing nutrient levels. These levels are used
to make recommendations for the addition of fertilizer and lime, which ultimately
results in achieving conditions for optimum plant growth.
听
Non-Potable Water & Wastewater:听 Many types of metals, minerals, nutrients and additional standard water tests are
performed daily.
听
Microbiology:听 Total coliform and fecal coliform analysis is completed daily on many types of water
samples. Methods used in the lab include both membrane filter and presence/absence
techniques.
听
Metals & Minerals:听 Elements in both dissolved and total forms are analyzed on numerous sample types.
