Capital grant: Thermal Ionisation Mass Spectrometer (TIMS)
Purchase of the Thermal Ionisation Mass Spectrometer (TIMS), replacing the previous 24-year-old instrument, has enhanced the capability of the James Hutton Institute in the provenancing of materials from the natural environment. The team responsible for the TIMS have increased their capability for analysing smaller samples to a higher quality and over a broader range of isotopes.
