Costs of water sample analyses

The costs of analysis of the chemical composition depends on the number of samples, the type and number of analysis, etc. In addition to analytical facilities, we can also assist with field sampling (oxic or anoxic conditions) and we can interprete analytical results.

The table below gives an indication for the analytical costs in euro excluding VAT. There is an additional handling fee of 300 euro per project.

If you would like to have water samples collected and/or analysed by our scientific and laboratory staff, please contact Dr. Boris van Breukelen for a more detailed quote of the costs.
