List of Charges How to Submit the Samples And Mode of Payment HOW TO SUBMIT THE SAMPLES The samples should be submitted in the prescribed format indicating the information called for as well as your special requirement, if any.If you are sending them by mail, please enclose the payment along with the samples and address the same to: The Head , Sophisticated Analytical Instrument Facility Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036. Only on recipt of the payment along with the samples, they will be registered for analysis and taken up for measurement as per the seniority/queue of the users of the instrument concerned.As soon as the analysis is over, the spectra along with the receipt / bill will be sent to the users.While submitting samples for more than one analysis separate samples are to be sent for each. An Important notice As per the guidelines of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), in all publications of research work, where in the analytical services of the SAIF have been made use of, the DST and the SAIF, IIT Madras shall be duly acknowledged. Kindly send us the publication reference (Journal name/volume number/names of the authors/date of issue of the publication etc) to us. A list of charges for spectral measurements, as stipulated by the Department of Science & Technology, New Delhi, is annexed. A "Three Tier" Charge System is being followed. Please note that : The charges mentioned are for analysis of samples received from users within India only. For overseas users, please contact SAIF by Email directly. Charges are subject to change periodically Mode of Payment Please note the current policy on payment of analysis charges: Our current policy requires analysis that payment be received before the samples can be registered and analysis taken up. Please make sure that the payment is received along with the samples. Payments are to be made by either online facilty or Card swiping facility also available. Please note that in the event the amount/payment received is more than the actual analyses charges incurred, it will NOT be possible to refund the excess amount paid. However, the excess amount may be adjusted against future analyses by the same user or another user from the same organization following a written request by Email or hard copy.The excess amount adjustment should be utilized before 31st March, the financial year ends.

# Maximum 60 points includes 5K interval @ Tc -50 to Tc +50 for High temperature M-T measurement.

* Cost includes the charges for capillary tube.

Data & Structure
* "These are the minimum charges. Additional charges may be levied depending on the nature and complexity of the problem. Please contact SAIF Office Dr. P. K. Sudhadevi in this connection. "

* Quantum Yield, quenching and solvatochromism and FRET studies can only be done in solution state. The user should check the solubility of sample in different solvents and same should be informed to the operator through the reg. form. For quenching studies the user should supply the quencher solutions with known concentration.

For FRET studies your sample should contain an electron rich (donor) species and electron deficient (acceptor) unit in such a way that emission from the donor and absorption from the acceptor overlap considerably.

For specialized measurements like FRET and quenching studies, please contact 044-2257-5926/5939 or mail to sdevi'at'iitm.ac.in before submitting the samples. The charge mentioned for FRET studies is for checking absorption and emission of donor and acceptor only. Extra charges may be levied depending on the analysis.

* User should first submit for steady state Fluorescence quenching studies before submitting for lifetime measurements or they have to provide information about steady state Fluorescence quenching analysis. For specialized measurements like FRET and quenching studies, please contact 044-2257-5926/5939 or mail to sdevi@iitm.ac.in or varam@iitm.ac.in before submitting the samples

Additional Charges may be levied for:

Samples requiring special processing prior to measurement (subject to availability)
Deuterated solvents and other costly chemicals
Whenever specialized measurements are performed – which are not specified above [eg. VT NMR, DEPT(NMR), VT XRD]

For heating rates slower than 10 K/ min, charges will be according to the number of hours taken for measurement. (for DSC)
