Finnish Customs requests tenders for the supply of an FTIR microscope system. This call for tenders concerns the procurement of an FTIR microscope system capable of performing material identification and morphology analyses with an accuracy of approximately 10 micrometers. The system shall enable both infrared (IR) analytical measurements and microscopic imaging of the same sample area. The new system will replace the organization’s current 20-year-old microscopes, thereby enhancing the accuracy and reliability of FTIR studies conducted within our laboratory. One (1) supplier will be selected for the procurement in accordance with the terms and conditions set in this call for tenders and its appendices. The lengths of the maintenance agreement periods are 1+2+2+2+2 years. If the agreement is still in force after the nine (9) year period, the agreement shall remain in force until further notice, if neither party terminates the agreement before the end of the last agreement period. The supplier will be selected based on determining the most economically advantageous tender. The criteria for determining the most economically advantageous tender are price (60 %) and qualitative criteria (40 %). The estimated value of the procurement has been calculated, by way of exception, on the assumption that the device will remain in use for a period of 10 years following its purchase.

Technological University DublinDublinDeadline: Jul 07Tenders are sought for a fluorescence microscope system. See Appendix 1 - Technical Specification and response documene for further details26/00896 Cell microscope
HavforskningsinstituttetBERGENDeadline: Jun 22This competition is for the procurement of an inverted microscope that can run routine analyses of cultivated cells. This particularly applies to automatic counting of cells, the proportion of dead cells and morphological changes of cells. An inverted microscope is therefore necessary. There will be many users of the instrument, with different uses and expertise. It is important that the user interface is educational and that the system has KI functions that facilitate the analyses. It is also important that larger objects such as fish larvae (up to 2.5 cm) can be analysed, as well as histological slides. Therefore, we need to have connectivity options to the extra colour camera. We plan to replace the current confocal scanner for use on this instrument at a later date.Upgrade to an existing widefield microscope
University of TurkuTurun yliopistoThe University of Turku / Turku Bioscience Centre started a procurement to upgrade an existing widefield microscope. The purchase is funded by Research Council of Finland, FIRI-grant 26081267. The existing Nikon Ti2-based microscope system was originally purchased following an EU-wide tendering process: HILMA 2016-0016596, TED 2016/S 120-212960. The current procurement concerns a technical upgrade to this existing microscope platform, not the purchase of a new standalone system. The intended Nikon iLas2 upgrade will provide the additional functionalities required to expand the existing microscope into a system capable of advanced TIRF imaging, FRAP, and photomanipulation. These capabilities are essential for the planned smart microscopy workflows at the Turku Bioscience Centre Microscopy Facility. The key technical requirement is that the upgrade must be seamlessly integrated into the existing Nikon Eclipse Ti2 microscope and controlled through Nikon NIS-Elements software. This integration is essential because the microscope is used for automated and adaptive imaging workflows based on NIS-Elements JOBS. The planned smart microscopy pipelines require coordinated control of the microscope hardware, TIRF illumination angle, laser lines, photomanipulation/FRAP module, camera acquisition, filter wheels, and existing data acquisition hardware within a single software environment. Alternative systems that are not fully integrated into Nikon NIS-Elements, or that are not fully compatible with NIS-Elements JOBS, would not meet the technical requirements of the procurement. Such alternatives would compromise the ability to run automated smart microscopy workflows in TIRF mode and would create incompatibilities with the existing microscope platform, software environment, and established imaging pipelines. Therefore, replacing the intended Nikon upgrade with components from another manufacturer or supplier would not constitute a reasonable substitute solution.

Finnish CustomsHelsinkiDeadline: Aug 14This call for tenders concerns UHPLC-MS/MS (triple quadrupole) system, which will be used in quantitative analysis of pesticides (multiresidue method as well as polar pesticides) in plant-based food products in Finnish Customs Laboratory. The number of different pesticides that need to be analyzed in one run is around 250-300 and the results are verified according to Sante guidance (Analytical quality control and method validation procedures for pesticide residue analysis in food and feed, SANTE/11312/2021 V2026, Implemented 01/01/2026.) The essential part of the pesticide analysis is software, which allows efficient and accurate analysis of LC-MS data. In addition to UHPLC-MS/MS system, the procurement also concerns the maintenance agreement for four (4) years. One (1) supplier will be selected for the procurement in accordance with the terms and conditions set in this call for tenders and its appendices. The supplier will be selected based on determining the most economically advantageous tender. The criteria for determining the most economically advantageous tender are price (10%) and quality-related grounds (90 %). The total score will be 100. The total price may not exceed 436 700 € (VAT 0%). If the total price is more than EUR 436 700 € (VAT 0%), the offer in question will be rejected.Scanning electron microscope
