This platform details equipment that facility managers or laboratories around Scotland currently have but are not using. Equipment can be found under either the ‘Free’, ‘Buy’ or ‘Loan’ labs, and you can search the tables for specific pieces of kit. Please feel free to email the contact about the kit, or the SMS for more information.
To send in equipment to be added to the table, please email scotmicro@outlook.com with the appropriate information.
An email with all the information present will be sent around on the SMS mailing list each month, and will be included in our quarterly newsletter. This will keep community members up to date with what is available.
