OASIS Laboratory Standard
Precision Lab Platform for Assured Integrity
The lab supports internal research and method development to inform client deliverables. We provide decision-grade, internally validated analysis and defensible insight — not accredited third-party testing.
TKOResearch operates an AI-enabled microscale research and verification laboratory focused on high-assurance physical experimentation without bulk hazardous materials. All work is conducted at bench scale using deliberately limited chemical inventories and inherently safer design principles. Laboratory practices are informed by applicable guidance from NIST, ISO, NFPA, and OSHA, adapted appropriately for a non-production, low-inventory research environment.
All work is scoped to protect chain of custody and to keep internal experimentation separate from client-facing evidence handling. The outcome is stronger advisory language without over-claiming laboratory accreditation.
Hybrid Artifact Analysis
Integration of physical and digital chain of custody for internal method development. Microscopy and trace artifact observation (PCBs, residues) are used as method validation inputs to support decision-grade advisory work.
RF & Spectrum Research
Spectrum analysis and emissions characterization to inform how environments influence artifacts or telemetry. Non-production testing under controlled conditions keeps evidence integrity central.
Electronics & Hardware
Signal integrity observation, fault characterization, and security evaluation of boards and devices. Findings stay tethered to custody timelines so advisory outputs remain defensible.
Controlled Materials Screening
Limited chemical trace observation performed under our Chemical Hygiene Plan (CHP); waste is handled through the Small Generator Program. Methods are documented for repeatability, not marketed as third-party testing.
Governance & Safety Controls
Designed and operated to meet or exceed common professional research expectations for private laboratories.
- Fume Hood Engineering Controls with documented maintenance
- Ventilation Verification (Anemometer) and documented checks
- SDS Access and controlled storage for all reagents and consumables
- PPE Policy aligned to task risk with documented use and training
- Waste handling alignment with Fairfax County small generator frameworks
While operated under rigorous documentation and safety protocols, this laboratory is not accredited for third-party testing and does not process client samples as a laboratory of record.
