TC = travel cost (includes transportation and accommodation when needed)

**

For elemental analysis by TXRF and AAS, additional cost will be charged for processing samples appropriate for instrumental analysis

***

Particulate mass determination is performed only in tandem with XRF analysis

****

PON and acidity test in vinegar are performed only in tandem with C-14 determination to detect acetic acid adulteration

*****

Microbiological test on food and medical products are performed only in tandem with Co-60 irradiation of such products
