We offer CHN elemental analysis (carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen) in organic materials using an Exeter Analytical CE440.

Samples are combusted at high temperatures in a stream of oxygen, and the instrument measures the products of combustion for carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen in a single analysis.  This instrument offers unsurpassed precision and accuracy.  The absolute error in the measurement is 0.3% by weight.  Detection limits are generally 0.01-0.1%.

Sample sizes are typically 1-10 mg weighed accurately on our new microbalance, a Mettler MX5.
