Description
This Request for Proposal (RFP) seeks to procure a chromatography system that integrates both preparative-scale high-performance liquid chromatography (up to 2 g) and automated flash chromatography. The system must support ultraviolet-visible detection from 300-800 nm, automated injection and fraction collection, and withstand pressures up to 400 bar in HPLC mode. It should be capable of normal-phase chromatography using a polar stationary phase with nonpolar mobile phases in both modes. The procurement includes submission of detailed proposal forms and qualifications.
