What the buyer is looking for
The object of the procurement is a gas chromatograph triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (GC-MS/MS) with an automatic sampler for the determination of pesticide residues in food. In particular, the device is used for the determination of multi-residue methods and individual GC-demanding pesticides from different food matrices. The system must be suitable for demanding accredited routine use, provide high sensitivity and selectivity, and enable reliable analytics even in challenging matrices. The aim of the procurement is to ensure the laboratory's analytical capability, the reliability of the results and the long-term continuity of operations.
