Based in Miami, Florida, the Beta Analytic radiocarbon dating lab revolutionized the fields of archaeology and late quaternary geology. Prior to the company's inception in 1979, radiocarbon dates were scarce and available only through small university laboratories. It took months and sometimes years to obtain carbon dating results. The lab's commitment to meet the scientific community's demand for fast yet accurate carbon dating analysis led to immediate success.Beta Analytic was founded by Murry Tamers, Ph.D. (Yale University), D.Sc. (Universite de Paris Sorbonne) and Jerry Stipp, Ph.D. (Australian National University). They have both been instrumental in the development of radiocarbon dating methodology since 1959 and have published more than 100 papers. Dr. Tamers was a director for university radiocarbon dating labs for twenty years before he commercialized radiocarbon dating analysis as Beta Analytic chairman and lab director.The company's dedication to accuracy is at the core of its policies. By innovating new techniques, keeping abreast of the latest technology, and training qualified scientists to stay ahead of demand, Beta Analytic has maintained its firm commitment to quality over the years.Beta Analytic provides the following services:- Radiocarbon Dating by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS)- Stable Isotopes Analysis (δ18O, δ2H, δ15N, δ13C) - Nitrate Source Tracking (δ15N & δ18O analysis of dissolved nitrates in water)- %C, %N, C:N and % collagen yield for non-cremated bones- Biobased Testing by standards ASTM D6866, CEN 16137, CEN 16640, ISO 16620, ISO 19984- Biofuels renewable carbon testing by ASTM D6866- CO2 emissions and Waste-derived fuels - ASTM D6866, EN 15440, ISO 13833- Natural products (natural vs synthetic origin) - ASTM D6866, ISO 16620-2All our measurements are ISO/IEC 17025:2005-accredited, a guarantee of accuracy and precision.To know more about what we do, please visit www.radiocarbon.com and www.betalabservices.com
