RE: Bioassay Labs in Florida or SE U.S.



The actinide laboratory at Florida State University Department of Chemistry
is one of the best in the world, and could probably direct you to a good
commercial analytical lab.

We have some members of the public that had their hair sampled for U by a
holistic medicine facility, and the results came back elevated.  Based on
our investigation, we suspect poor lab techniques for the hair analysis (not
to mention that analysis of hair is inappropriate as a bioassay for U).

Can anyone name some labs located in Florida or the southeastern U.S.
capable of performing uranium bioassays (urinalysis)?
