Project Description

URGENT: Environmental laboratory needed for water testing that has the capability to receive samples delivered from overseas, test samples urgently according to the list below and report results.

Samples from 2 sites in Asia would be sent twice per month for testing, perhaps for the next 6 months. The laboratory would need to arrange all logistics on arrival in their country to allow prompt analysis of the samples.
Please supply a quotation for these services.
