The collaboration with the University of Sheffield, a reputable educational institution, can also lead to further opportunities in research and development initiatives, enhancing business growth potential.

## Notice

The Partridge Group based within the Chemistry department at the University of Sheffield has been awarded an EPSRC grant to develop a Cu-catalysed amination reaction of alkylboronic esters. The products of these reactions, alkyl amines, are high value products commonly found in biologically active molecules such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Part of the project involves developing asymmetric amination methods. We therefore require the ability to measure the enantiomeric excess of the chemicals made. The University is seeking to purchase an analytical HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography) machine, to use in conjunction with chiral phase analytical columns. This is a mini-competition under Lot 4 (Liquid Chromatographs) of the APUC Framework Agreement for: Supply of Mass Spectrometry and Chromatography Equipment LAB1016AP If you have any questions or comments in relation to this tender they must be submitted via the In-tend system, this can be accessed at http://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield Completed tenders must be returned through the same e-tendering system.
