NEaar: North East Amino Acid Racemization
Description
NEaar is dedicated to providing world class amino acid racemization analysis as a tool for geochronology and understanding preservation and degradation. It is the NERC-recognised facility for chiral amino acid analysis.
The NEaar lab became NERC-recognised in 2008 and has hosted over 120 British and international researchers, from undergraduate students to academic staff.
NEaar has three main scientific objectives:
- to continue actively pioneering analytical advances in amino acid research;
- to welcome visiting researchers and students, giving them the opportunity to learn the technique and analyse their own samples whilst supporting them in data interpretation;
- to provide a “Pay-As-You-Go” amino acid analysis service for the earth science and archaeological science community.
