Here you will find the scope of activities of our testing laboratory, as well as the standards according to which we carry out our analyses and sampling. Analyses that we perform as an accredited method are additionally marked with “accredited.”

If you cannot find what you are looking for in our list or need a method developed for a specific issue, please feel free to contact us via the email address of our testing laboratory. We also cooperate with partner laboratories at and outside the TU Wien in various areas (e.g., XRF analysis of ash) in order to provide you with with the best fitting analysis
