Metabolomics

Rates

Below please find the list of our rates in effect according to your situation.

The assay service includes sample preparation, sample analysis by LC-MS/MS, peak integration, relative quantification (e.g. as a percentage of a control condition) or absolute quantification (e.g. nmol/mg of a sample) and the interpretation of results. Clients may participate in some of these steps in order to reduce the cost of the service.

Rates are subject to change.

Internal CRCHUM rates

Note: The internal price is only applicable when the service is paid via a CHUM internal account, unless previously approved by the CRCHUM finance service.

The prices indicated are prices per sample analyzed. A minimum fee (min.) is charged to perform most assays.
