Except where otherwise noted, charges do not include materials. These will be billed separately at current price for materials plus a thirty percent surcharge. Not all instruments may be available at these rates. The minimum charge is for one hour of time. These rates are provided as an aid to our academic and other professional colleagues for budgeting purposes only or to be included with research proposals to be submitted to various funding agencies. These rates are to be used as a guide only and are subject to change without notice.
Independent Operation: no staff assistance required
Remote or Staff-Assisted Operation: rate reflects staff time required
Intramural Orders, IMO reflect our best prices and are available to Colorado State University programs.
Certain select external, academic and non-proprietary programs are eligible to be considered for these IMO rates plus 48% overhead charge.
