Docket Number: 94-049. Applicant: Mayo Foundation, Rochester, MN
55905. Instrument: Mass Spectrometer with Combined Gas Chromatograph/
Combustion Interface, Model Delta S. Manufacturer: Finnigan MAT,
Germany. Intended Use: See notice at 59 FR 23696, May 6, 1994. Reasons:
The foreign instrument provides: (1) an inlet with combined gas
chromatograph and radiation-reduction furnaces and (2) internal
precisions of 0.01 percent and 0.006 per mil for 100 bar l
samples. Advice Received From: National Institutes of Health, June 23,
1994.
The National Institutes of Health advises that (1) the capabilities
of each of the foreign instruments described above are pertinent to
each applicant's intended purpose and (2) they know of no domestic
instrument or apparatus of equivalent scientific value for the intended
use of each instrument.
