## Description

Cefas require samples of three matrices: 1\) water; 2\) sediment; and, 3\) biological, to be analysed for levels of the pyrethroid insecticide deltamethrin \(\[\(S\)-Cyano-\(3-phenoxyphenyl\)-methyl\] \(1R,3R\)-3-\(2,2-dibromoethenyl\)-2,2-dimethyl-cyclopropane-1-carboxylate\)\. The levels present, particularly in the sediment and water, may be sub-nanogram per L or Kg and, as a result, Cefas will need to be assured of assay sensitivity and limits of detection\. Details should be provided in responses\. The Supplier is to provide a quoted price per individual sample\. However, it is likely that the total requirement will be approximately 20 water samples, 20 sediment samples, and 50 biological samples \(approx\. 50-200g each\) although this cannot be guaranteed\. Price reductions, based on sample numbers, should be provided separately\. PLEASE READ ATTACHED RFQ FOR FULL DETAILS
