Statement of Work (SOW) Project: Electronic Nose Flash gas chromatographer (GC) analyzer
GENERAL INFORMATION
1.0 Scope of Work: Purpose is to procure an electronic nose flash gas chromatographer (GC) to be used to evaluate aroma profiles of dry beans and other pulses. The equipment should be able to quickly and accurately conduct sensory and chemical analysis of flour samples to differentiate sensory profiles.
2.0 Background: SBRU conducts plant genetics and food processing research on using dry beans and other pulses as flours. Flour aroma is an important consideration since pulses often have strong beany or vegetative aromas that limit consumer appeal. A method is needed to quickly assess aroma profiles of pulse flour and food product samples. The method should be high throughput with the ability to evaluate thousands of samples per year. The method should be amenable to use as a screening tool in pulse breeding to identify germplasm with acceptable aroma profiles.
CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS
3.0 Technical Requirements/Specs: Provide and deliver one Electronic Nose Flash GC analyzer with the following characteristics/capabilities:
