DOJ FSNI - Supply, Delivery, Installation and Maintenance of a Dual Headspace GC/FID Instrument for the Analysis of Ethanol in Body Fluids

Forensic Science Northern Ireland (FSNI) is seeking to establish a contract for the supply and delivery, installation and maintenance of of a Dual Headspace GC/FID instrument for the analysis of ethanol in body fluids for both routine casework and method development/instrument validation work. FSNI’s primary purpose is the provision of effective scientific advice to support the delivery of justice. FSNI’s Analytical Services Team (AST) provides analysis of body fluids from both the Police Service of Northern Ireland and the State Pathologists Department for the presence of ethanol. FSNI currently uses one Dual Headspace GCFID instrument for the workflows described above and are wishing to replace their existing capacity through the procurement of this instrument.
