Beta Analytic Inc., the world’s largest professional radiocarbon dating laboratory, has successfully completed its ISO/IEC 17025:2017 re-accreditation assessment, according to Perry Johnson Laboratory Accreditation, Inc.

The Miami-based lab has maintained its accreditation for these services: (1) measurement of natural levels of radiocarbon by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS), Liquid Scintillation Counting (LSC) and/or Proportional Scintillation-Counter Method (PSM), and (2) measurement of stable isotope rations of Carbon, Nitrogen, and Oxygen by Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (IRMS).
