        Hello everybody, I am an amateur scientist.  I replicate experiments in   
   prebiotic chemistry at home, the results of which are posted on my YouTube   
   channel.  For the most part, I am able to replicate these experiments   
   successfully according to the    
   original experimental protocol.  However, I have only chemical reagents and a   
   UV/VIS spectrophotometer to analyze the results of each experiment.  This   
   becomes a problem when the products of the original experiment are measured in   
   micrograms per liter,    
   or other very minute quantities.  I was wondering if there are labs which I   
   could send my samples to which would analyze the results using HPLC, gas   
   chromatography or other more sophisticated methods which I simply don't have   
   at my disposal. For example,    
   there are articles which discuss how the nucleotide base uracil can be made   
   from b-alanine and urea.  I have tried this myself with very poor results when   
   it comes to determining which products were produced from the experiment.  Any   
   help that anyone    
   here could provide would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks a lot!
