Notice Title

F/2699 - Drop Shape Tensiometer

Notice Description

The School of Food Science and Nutrition which is part of the Faculty of Mathematics and Physical Sciences at the University of Leeds, undertakes a diverse range of fundamental scientific principles to addressing issues of food quality with collaborators across the university campus, external institutions and organisations. It is seeking tenders for a drop shape tensiometer to complement the facilities offered within its soft matter research. The control and data acquisition system must be versatile and straightforward to use. The data generated must be exportable in standard formats for analysis using other proprietary software, such as Matlab, LabView or Excel etc. The tensiometer will be primarily used by dedicated academic technical staff, postdoctoral researchers, PhD student and project students. Such a group will possess a range of expertise and so it is important that the system has an intuitive interface and that it is inherently easy to use. The dedicated technical staff and postdocs will require training to a level at which they are able to provide basic instruction to new users (including change of samples, calibration, setting up of new measurement sequences) Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No https://in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofleeds/aspx/
