## Description

Cefas require a MALDI-TOFF benchtop bio-analyser and spectra libraries to rapidly detect bacteria, yeasts, and moulds, with an additional library to detect pathogens that require addition containment or security\. The system must have the ability to curate libraries for niche pathogens that are critical for animal, human and environmental health\. It would be attractive if these curated libraries could be shared with other collaborative partners \(e\.g\., Animal and Plant Health Agency\)\. These should be able to be shared via Excel or other easily compatible programme\.
