The supply, installation, commissioning and 3-year maintenance of specific analytical laboratory instrumentation

National Institute for Bioprocessing Research and Training

NIBRT would like to procure the supply, installation, commissioning and 3-year maintenance of the following analytical instruments for a new analytical project.
Lot 1: single quadrupole mass spectrometer.
Lot 2: liquid chromatography equipment to include:
1 X nanoLC system, consisting of gradient nanoflow LC pump and temperature controlled micro volume autosampler or equivalent;
1 X nanoLC gradient pump;
2 X Capillary gradient pumps;
3 X Thermostatted Column compartments with micro switching valves;
2 X micro volume external switching valves;
1 X active splitting valve. We will consider tenders for both new and/or ex demo instrumentation. Tenderers must apply for both lots. We are looking for an integrated LC-MS system and as a result require an integrated solution from one tenderer.
