In six provinces in China, Analytik Jena will provide analytical instruments. Overall, the German based producer of highly innovative equipment will deliver 90 instruments. The scope of supply includes Atomic-Absorption-Spectrometer 41 ZEEnit, 43 UVVIS Spectrofotometer Specord and 6 Sum Parameters Instruments multi N/C. The order volume amounts to more than 2.5 Mio Euro. The instruments are used to equip CDC centres in Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, and Gansu.
