Choose this form if you would like to discuss a project or analytical challenge with CMSI before deciding on the most appropriate service.

Examples include study design, selection of analytical methods, metabolomics and lipidomics strategies, feasibility assessments, funding applications, laboratory access, instrument training, or general scientific consultation.

No detailed project plan is required at this stage.

Choose this form if you would like to use CMSI laboratories or instruments yourself.

This form is intended for researchers who:

• Use an existing CMSI workflow or standard method

• Have an established or published analytical method that can be implemented without substantial development

• Need instrument access, laboratory access, user training, or technical support

If substantial method development, optimisation, or feasibility assessment is required, please submit a CMSI Method Development Request instead.

Choose this form if no suitable analytical method currently exists, if an existing method must be adapted or transferred, or if substantial development work is required before analysis can be performed.

Examples include:

• New compounds or analytes

• New sample types or matrices

• Method optimisation or validation

• Transfer of methods between platforms

• Feasibility studies for new analytical approaches

CMSI will evaluate the scientific and technical feasibility of the proposed work and discuss the resources required.

Choose this form if you would like CMSI to perform analytical measurements on your samples using an established method or workflow.

Examples include metabolomics, lipidomics, PFAS analysis, targeted quantification, and other routine mass spectrometry services.

CMSI will review the request, discuss the analytical strategy with you if needed, and provide a quotation where applicable.
