Wet area (sorting + preparation)

Wet area (sorting + preparation)

It is mainly dedicated to sorting, dissection and short term storage in freezers (-20° and -80°C).

We also perform sample preparation for stable isotope analysis conducted in partnership with IRMS or LA-ICP-MS dedicated platforms (for example the LIENSs Stable Isotope Facility at La Rochelle, or the IPREM in Pau).
