Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory
Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory offers
14C dating using the technique of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). At the moment, dozen
14C AMS laboratories is active in Europe. Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory is the first such institution in the Central-Eastern Europe. Performance of the Poznan Radiocarbon Laboratory (PRL) is possible due to a
close collaboration with the
AMS Laboratory (LAMS), housed at the same floor, and leaded by the same person. Therefore, communication between PRL and LAMS is fast and effective.
14C method is the standard method of dating archaeological objects and geological formations younger than ca. 50 thousand years. These
14C datings are demanded by researchers dealing with archaeology, art history, geology, geomorphology, palaeoclimatology, palaeobotany etc.
14C measurements are also applied in biochemistry and food industry. Due to multidisciplinary applications,
14C laboratories are usually open to cooperate with wide community.
