5Scanning Electron Microscope
Danmarks Tekniske Universitet - DTUKgs. LyngbyDeadline: Aug 31This tender concerns the acquisition of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) for a university facility that provides access to an extensive suite of nanofabrication and characterisation tools as one of its core purposes. Due to a recently identified bottleneck in the suite of high-end characterisation in the cleanroom, DTU wishes to acquire a SEM. This problem has arisen as the result of multiple breakdowns among the aging and current instruments thus exposing an unexpected vulnerability in the overall process flow of several of our commercial users. The instrument is intended to meet the characterization requirements of DTU’s key commercial customers. Accordingly, only a high-end system equipped with a field emission source, capable of delivering high emission at low energy spread, will be considered acceptable. The system must provide state-of-the-art lateral image resolution of 0.8 nm or better at an accelerating voltage of 15 kV, and 0.9 nm or better at 1 kV, both achieved without beam deceleration or sample bias and using the in-column secondary electron detector. The SEM must be compatible with samples originating directly from customer production processes and must therefore be capable of handling wafers with diameters of up to 200 mm. Typical substrate materials include silicon, fused silica, and quartz. These materials cannot be coated to reduce charging effects during SEM analysis, and the instrument must therefore be capable of imaging such non-conductive samples without the application of conductive coatings.Market consultation advanced inverted fluorescence microscope
Rijksuniversiteit GroningenGroningenDeadline: Jul 30Introduction Within the University of Groningen (UG), at the Groningen Research Institute of Pharmacy, the Pharmaceutical Analysis Group studies cell behaviour and nanoparticle dynamics in physiologically relevant microenvironments, with a particular focus on microfluidic devices and hydrogel-based platforms. A central aspect of this research is the ability to engineer precisely defined biochemical and physical microenvironments at the sub-micron scale, and to observe how cells and particles respond to these environments over time. To address the research questions arising in this context, an advanced inverted fluorescence microscope is required, capable of supporting both high-precision imaging and laser patterning of microenvironments, long-term live imaging of dim fluorescent samples across extended timescales of 24 hours or more, and real-time closed-loop experiment control, where imaging data must be processed and acted upon during acquisition rather than after the fact. To enable sub-micron laser photopatterning, the microscope must support stable and validated integration with the Alveole Primo2 system, a laser-based photopatterning module which will be available in the group. Together, these requirements place stringent demands on the optical performance, mechanical stability, and computational capabilities of the microscope. Please see the market consultation document for further information.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. BergmanLabora ABFTIR Microscope
Finnish CustomsHelsinkiFinnish 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.1105601 UiO Life Sciences user equipment.

STATSBYGGOSLODeadline: Aug 24Statsbygg is building the new Life Science Building (LVB) for the University of Oslo and Oslo University Hospital on behalf of the Ministry of Education and Research and South-East Health as with the contracting authority. The building shall be the workplace for approx. 1,600 employees and 1,600 students. Start up for the excavation and ground work was the second quarter of 2019 and the planned completion is at the end of 2026. Different professional environments will work multi-disciplinary here to develop new solutions for major challenges within health and sustainability with access to the best and most modern equipment required to carry out research, teaching and world class innovation.NB: The contracting authority draws attention to the fact that due to staff holidays questions will not be answered in week 28-31.
