The University of Turku is looking to upgrade from a Q Exactive Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific) to a Q Exactive HF Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer to match the recently installed Q Exactive HF. UTU needs to have 2 identical instruments in order to be able to run large scale projects in a reasonable time frame. UTU intends to exchange a Q Exactive (installed 2016) and an LTQ Orbitrap Velos Pro ETD (installed 2010) for a Q-Exactive HF that has either been kept under a full service contract or has been refurbished with original manufacturers parts. Specifications of the trade-in instruments are listed in appendix 1.
