Assignment text
DTU Nanolab intends to procure a suite of instruments capable of performing a seamless workflow for sample preparation of biological and soft matter suitable for (3D) scanning electron microscopy analysis. The suite of instruments should be compatible with already existing equipment at DTU Nanolab and future proof for already planned extensions. The sample preparation flow should be capable of preparing biological and soft matter samples for analysis by means of electron microscopy while preserving the sample morphology without introducing artefacts.
Reliable and easy sample transfer between the instruments is of utmost importance to minimize the introduction of sample artefacts. The instruments will be used by students, researchers and external customers and should therefore be a proven and robust and safe design that enables training to a wide and varied user base. DTUs requirements can only be fulfilled by suite of instruments from Leica, that can only be purchased through Triolab.
