MVA Scientific Consultants services
Nanotechnology & Nanomaterials
Atlanta-based MVA Scientific Consultants provides instrumental analysis and scientific support to the nanotechnology sector and nanomaterials manufacturers. Our scientists are members of the ASTM Committee concerning the development of standards and guidance for nanotechnology and nanomaterials. We participated in studies that led to the certification of ERM-FD100 and ERM-FD304, the first two certified silica nanoparticle reference materials based worldwide.
Environmental & Industrial Hygiene
Atlanta-based MVA Scientific Consultants provides critical analysis and scientific support for the environmental, environmental engineering, and industrial hygiene industries in our 14,000 square foot facility. Our experienced scientists are members of the ASTM Committee for development of standards and guidance for carbon black and asbestos.
Stack Sample Testing
Atlanta-based MVA Scientific Consultants provides customized analyses and scientific support to stack testers and their clients in our 14,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility. We specialize in emission sample particle sizing and in particle and back-half catch material identification. Particle sizing of filter samples (e.g. Method 5) and for sources too clean for gravimetric methods (e.g. Method 202) is accomplished through ISO17025 compliant microscopical methods. Particle and back-half catch identification utilizes a powerful combination of light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry and micro-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
Litigation Support
Atlanta-based MVA Scientific Consultants provides critical analysis and scientific support for the legal communities in our 14,000 square foot facility. Many legal cases, patent litigation and patent prosecution for example, are aided by the support of scientific data and evidence. Having a strong technical background in multiple disciplines and case work experience are the keys to providing the best testing and consultation support to our clients. MVA Scientific Consultants has a wide range of experts including chemists, physicists, geologists, engineers and forensic scientists. With this variety of backgrounds, MVA has provided technical support to cases in product liability, intellectual property, insurance claims, asbestos, toxic torts, and product failures.
Laboratory Support
MVA Scientific Consultants specializes in non-routine and customized analytical testing services. Our testing services typically help clients answer: Where did the contamination come from? What is this unknown material? What is the root cause for this product failure? What is the composition of this product? We understand that many laboratories are not equipped with the instruments and personnel to perform non-routine or customized testing. MVA can help you expand the testing services your lab provides. Whether you need assistance with sample preparation or an entire range of analytical services for multiple sample types, we can help.
