Our facility runs on a cost recovery model. The collected fees are used to pay for the maintenance of the equipment, service contracts, supplies, necessary upgrades and the salary of the managers.
* : Applies to the hands-on portion of the training
**: + the cost of the nozzle if not provided by the investigator
***: + entry fees and 1.5h for startup
The power user rate is given to labs using >10% of annual usage time on the analyzers (Fortessa, Canto, Aurora) and revised annually at the end of the fiscal year
