The turnaround times listed are approximate for well prepared samples (i.e dried, ground, weighed, encapsulated in tin (Sn) capsules, and organized in 96-well plates). Large sample sets (>100 samples) will have a longer turnaround time. Test samples and small sample sets (<50 regular / < 20 difficult samples) will have a shorter turnaround time than posted above.
