NUTS code: DK01 Hovedstaden

II.2.4) Description of the procurement:

For conducting routine high-precision isotope analysis we intend to purchase Thermo Scientific Neoma multicollector ICP-MS (MC-ICP-MS). This ICP-MS system builds on well-established multicollector technology. As the Thermo Scientific Neoma multicollector tecknoology already is established at the institute a second instrument will further expand the capabilities for measuring high-precision isotope ratio analyses. The Neoma instrument features water cooled magnet, unique 1013 Ohm amplifiers and movable collector array. Included with the purchase is: Shipment, 12 months of warranty and installation.

Section IV: Procedure

IV.1) Description

IV.1.1) Type of procedure

Negotiated procedure without prior publication

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason:
- protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights

Explanation:

The ThermoFisher high resolution MC-ICP-MS is the only instrument on the current market that has the capacity of producing accuracy and reproducibility because of the virtual amplifier concept, stability as a result of water cooled magnet, analytical flexibility due to combination of zoom optic and the moveable collector array and, finally, the range of potential applications for elements in the intermediate mass range. Sensitivity as a result of the jet interface and 10 kV acceleration voltage. Safety because of the grounded ion source. No other supplier is offering a similar capacity considering the abovementioned aspects.
