Ministry of Defence awarded a contract to Thermo Fisher Scientific for the supply of a Liquid Ion Chromatography (LIC) instrument to support the Nuclear Department's Nuclear Reactor Course.

The contract, valued at £43,914.07, replaces the Department's existing Dionex ICS-2000 LIC instrument, which is over 15 years old, has been superseded by two newer models, and is unreliable, requiring significant operator management and time to become operational.
