## Notice

The College of Life and Natural Sciences is looking to purchase a Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (GCMS) to analyse chemical, forensic and environmental samples. This instrument will be used by undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers and consultants looking at a wide variety of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds. The current GCMS they have is outdated and a new GCMS is needed to ensure the quality of teaching at the University is upheld.
