Tyskland – Undersøgelser og analyser til bestemmelse af sammensætning og renhed – Umweltprobenbank des Bundes: Chemisch-analytische Untersuchungen für Polyzyklische Aromatische Kohlenwasserstoffe, Chlorkohlenwasserstoffe, Polychlorierte Biphenyle, Polychlorierte Diben-zodioxine (PCDD) sowie Dibenzofurane (PCDF) und Fettbestimmung

For UPB, environmental samples are taken annually or biennially. The substance groups and sample quantities listed in Annex 2 of the tender documents are to be investigated in these biota samples. With the offer, the bidders submit a proposal for the methods by which the samples are analysed for the set of analytes. The detection and determination limits required for this are based on the experiences from the measurements of the last years. The bidders justify adjustments to the scope of services, in particular also for analytes, the concentrations of which in certain sample types have decreased so much due to the successes of environmental protection that they can no longer be detected with the detection limits of the existing methods and the effort for an improvement of the detection limits is disproportionately high. The results are to be delivered after quality control, quality assurance and plausibility control in the UPB analysis import format (Excel files for import into the UBA database). The work required for this is to be provided by the AN from the start of the contract continuously until the end of the contract, after a maximum of 4 years, in close consultation with the Umweltbundesamt (UBA).
