The present tender concerns the acquisition of a Gas Chromatography system coupled to a Triple Quadrupole Tandem Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS/MS-QQQ), including a full-risk maintenance contract. The instrument will provide a versatile analytical platform supporting a broad range of applications throughout its operational lifetime. Its immediate priority will be the separation, detection and quantification of substances migrating from food contact materials, as well as other contaminants and target compounds in complex matrices at trace concentration levels. The GC-MS/MS-QQQ system constitutes a critical asset for the unit’s ongoing activities and projects and will replace an existing GC-MS/MS system that no longer fulfils current operational requirements.
