LCMS system
About This Opportunity
TranslatedThis tender is for the procurement of a Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LCMS) system, specifically a triple quadrupole system for drug analysis and toxicological investigations. The system must be fully functional and include installation and training. Key technical specifications include a maximum operating pressure of 1,300 bar, a binary high-pressure gradient with an additional third pump, at least two pumps with a 4-solvent selection capability, an autosampler capable of holding over 150 samples (1.5 ml vials), a column oven with at least six column positions and a valve for online Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) integration, a software-controllable waste valve, and vacuum pumps designed for low operating costs. The system must also allow for easy cleaning of the ion source.
This is a supplies contract in the Research sector. Located in Germany, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
