The National Research Council Canada has a requirement to purchase a Fluorescence Spectrometer with Advanced Excitation Emission Matrix Spectroscopy (EEMS) Analysis Capabilities. This purchase will support a range of projects which require high-through-put, state-of-the-art tools for measuring the optical properties of water in detail. This instrument must accurately determine the absorbance, fluorescence, and other (scattering, excitation emission matrix, and other techniques for evaluating environmental parameters in water samples). This instrument also needs to have auto sampling capabilities, as Quantum and Nanotechnologies (QN) anticipates running many samples during field seasons.
