Hultgren Laboratory

Pricing

The Hultgren Laboratory receives funding to support academic research, which reduces access costs for academic use. For commercial use, regulatory requirements mean that rates are based on full cost coverage principles.

There are two price lists - academic and commercial - that can be found here .

Academic prices

Academic rates are accessible to university and institute users when conducting open research that will be published. There are two pricing models:

  • Hourly rates for occasional instrument use.
  • Subscription packages for frequent users, who want regular and cost-effective access. 

Since the Hultgren Laboratory is supported by KTH and private financing, it is important to acknowledge the use of the Hultgren Laboratory when publishing. Acknowledgement text can be found here .

Commercial rates

Commercial price rates apply to companies as well as academic and institute users conducting comissioned research.

Commercial rates are based on full cost calculations, in compliance with government regulations that aims to open up university laboratories in a way that avoids disrupting the market.

Noteworthy commercial use may quality for volume discounts as specified in the price list.

Invoicing

Users are invoiced on a monthly basis, where the charge is based on the user's LIMS bookings or subscription type.
