Lot Information

Lot 1

The Scottish Ministers invites tenders for the purchase of a segmented flow analysis system for the analysis of dissolved nutrients (nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, silicate and ammonia) in saline estuarine and seawater samples for use in the Marine Laboratory and in oceanographic cruises The segmented flow analysis system will be used by the Water Chemistry delivery area within the Science, Evidence, Data and Digital portfolio for the analysis of nutrient samples from the Marine Directorate (MD), part of the Scottish Government, groups and external customers for various purposes. The determination of the concentration of nutrients in the water provides an important indication of nutrient enrichment and the potential for eutrophication. These data are routinely collected by MD environmental scientists to study the seawater dissolved inorganic nutrients and to assess the eutrophication levels in Scottish coastal and offshore waters. This information is used to fulfil Scottish Government requirements for a number of statutory monitoring and report obligations about the status of the marine environment. They are also used by other MD colleagues and submitted to national/international databases. For these reasons the quality of these data is critical.
