Column blockage caused by dirty samples will be charged an extra fee of the retail cost plus $50/column for commercial nanocolumns, or $150/column for self-packed nanocolumns. Pricing is based on per injection; complex samples may require multiple runs, typically 3-5 runs. Note that the price covers a standard report package generated by data analysis software.
