14C Exposure Age Calculator

Please enter the samples using the form below. You can double click the box to edit the dropdown boxes. You can also download the template at the bottom of the page and copy the boxes from the template directly into the calculator. When finished entering the data, please click the calculate button and be patient while the calculations are run. You will receive an email with a link to see the status of your sample run unless the server encounters an error. A new window will pop up with the results from your request or any errors that occur.

Note when pasting: When pasting data from Excel, single-click the cell where you would like to paste the data (the cell will be highlighted). If you double-click a cell (which brings up a text box), the program will assume you want all pasted data to go into that single cell. Pasting has been verified in the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
