These capabilities will be combined with fast polarity switching to provide enhanced productivity, alongside the alternative selectivity and particularly valuable for clinical and translational research focused on a wide range of small molecule biomarker compound classes in a wide range of sample matrices. The UoE has identified a device offered by thermo fisher that fulfils these requirements and looks to award the purchase of the equipment via the APUC (Advanced Procurement for Universities and Colleges) framework. The Thermo Scientific Stellar Mass Spectrometer is equipped with advanced ion fragmentation capabilities, specifically referred to as Collision-Induced Dissociation (CID) and Higher-Energy Collision Dissociation (HCD), which play a central role in the targeted quantitation and analysis of small molecules. HCD provides fragmentation similar to that of all current triple quadrupole mass spectrometers, whereas the CID offered by Thermo is an orthogonal fragmentation technique that can provide alternative selectivity. ## CPV classification Mass spectrometer Source Public Contracts Scotland · Notice rls-18-JAN522835 [View official notice](https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN522835) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
