Custom Synthesis - Long recognized as a world leader in the processing of "micro-quantities" of elements through in-house chemical techniques, the technical staff at Trace Sciences has converted most of the periodic table into base metals, salts and various oxides. Purchasers of stable metal isotopes are assured of product quality and reliability to the most exacting standards. Trace Sciences employs analytical techniques such as ICP-MS for exact isotopic and chemical analysis, and a new XRF-PD for molecular analysis. As a primary supplier to the medical, scientific, research and industrial communities, Trace Sciences is always at the forefront of new developments in the production and manipulation of stable metal isotopes.

Isotopic Foils - Trace Sciences has continued to invest in its lab facilities and production equipment. As a result, Trace Sciences can now produce a wider array of custom isotopic foils to meet the needs of our international market.  At Trace Sciences we have always manufactured many of our own foils. If you are looking for a small quantity of isotope, or pieces of foil, please let us know.
