Description
Auto-translated from bgPurchase and delivery of Purchase of a mass spectrometer for thin-layer chromatography for research group 3.2.2 'BAHLMCAA: Biologically Active Heterocyclic Ligands and Metal Complexes with Antioxidant Activity' in fulfillment of project BG-RRP-2.004-0004-C01: 'Strategic research and innovation program for the development of Medical University – Sofia' in fulfillment of project BG-RRP-2.004-0004-C01: 'Strategic research and innovation program for the development of Medical University – Sofia', financed by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. The estimated value and minimum technical requirements are described in detail in the Technical Specification of the documentation. Desktop, specialized system for obtaining mass spectra of thin-layer chromatography spots. Extraction and dissolution of the spot content in liquid phase and subsequent mass analysis of the liquid sample. Time for one measurement, including placing the thin-layer chromatography plate ≤ 2 minutes. To ensure compatibility of all components and modules, they must be from the same manufacturer. Mass range 10–2000 m/z or higher. Switching between positive and negative operating modes during a single measurement ≤ 50 milliseconds. Ion source: ionization modes must include both ASAP/APCI and at least ESI, for effective ionization of both non-polar and polar compounds (in positive and negative mode). Switching time between different modes and readiness of the new source for operation ≤ 5 minutes. Swapping ion sources without the need for de-vacuuming. Sources and inlet capillaries must be removable for cleaning without the need to stop the system vacuum. Presence of a probe for analysis of liquid and solid samples. Software for full system control. Mass spectrometer computer configuration with the following minimum requirements: Multi-core processor, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB disk, 24' monitor, laser printer, Windows 11 operating system. The system must be fully equipped for routine operation. Delivery includes the following: - preparation of parts and necessary elements for installation at the delivery location specified in this Contract; - installation, assembly, trial testing (including calibration), and commissioning of the delivered equipment; - training of the CONTRACTOR's personnel in operating the delivered equipment; - warranty support for the delivered equipment and delivery of necessary parts and materials within the warranty period, starting from the date of signing the commissioning protocol. Place of execution address: Sofia, Medical University – Sofia, Faculty of Pharmacy, 'Dunav' Street No. 2.
