About this file
This document outlines the specifications and salient requirements for a GlutoPeak instrument solicitation. The Agriculture Research Service requires the purchase of a GlutoPeak instrument that can rapidly measure gluten quality and rheological properties in wheat flour and meal samples using a 310g sample size within 110 minutes. The instrument must include two mixing bowls, two mixing paddles, a Windows 10 compatible computer with software to collect and report mixing profiles, a refrigerated circulator to maintain bowl temperature between -20 to 150 degrees Celsius with a temperature stability of 0.03 degrees, and a one year parts and labor warranty. Delivery is required within 110 days to the Throckmorton Plant Science Center in Manhattan, Kansas. The related federal contract opportunity has a solicitation number of 12805B23Q0493 for the purchase of a GlutoPeak instrument or equal.
