Amendment 1 - The purpose of this amendment is to upload the Attachment 1 that did not post to sam.gov.
RFQ Description:
Current and planned microplastics work at USGS Columbia Environmental Research Center calls for an instrument that can assist with high-throughput analysis of contaminants on plastics and determine the concentration and types of plastics in samples. The preferred Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer system must integrate into our current Agilent GC/MS system (8890/5977); thereby not requiring an additional instrument purchase. The control software must integrate seamlessly with our existing Agilent software used to operate the GC/MS system and must be capable of analysis of microplastics in a variety of sample types (air, water, soil, sediment). Delivery is expected within 270 days ARO. Refer to Attachment 1 for detailed salient specifications.
