Our services

We provide a range of services to meet national and international research and analysis needs. Current applications include:

  • quantitative analysis of accumulation of environmental contaminants in marine organisms
  • mechanistic evaluation of metal metabolism in disease states such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases and arthritis
  • 2D and 3D spatial localisation and quantitation of specific proteins, sugars and prosthetic groups within tissues in health and disease, and
  • archaeological applications which have provided unique insights into social aspects of human evolution via determination of the nutritional status of hominid remains.

We develop new and innovative applications in-house which researchers and industry use to analyse elements in new ways. We collaborate with a global network of industry partners to push the capabilities of current technologies and introduce groundbreaking improvements in instrumentation, methods and applications from around the world.

We also provide unique training opportunities for scientists, students and Australian industry in cutting edge technologies that are not available elsewhere in Australia.
