Description

NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, ALOSH, Morgantown, WV requires an Atmospheric Pressure/Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization (AP/MALDI) Source for Waters/Micromass QTOF-II Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer for the NIOSH/HELD/Allergy and Clinical Immunology Branch. Mass Tech, Inc. is the only vendor worldwide that produces an atmospheric pressure/matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (AP/MALDI) ion source for the Waters/Micromass QTOF-II instrument (SN:UC153) located in the Allergy and Clinical Immunology Branch. Waters/Micromass does not produce an AP/MALDI source for this instrument AP/MALDI is an important and recognized technique for biomolecular analysis. By coupling an AP/MALDI source to our existing QTOF-II instrument we can interrogate biomolecules with much more sensitivity, mass accuracy, and resolution than by any existing instrumentation. The AP/MALDI source is necessary equipment for the advancement of several ongoing research projects in the Branch, including tuberculosis profiling and antigen identification and toxic mold research. This notice is issued for informational purposes only. Any interested party may identify themselves to the contracting officer no later than fifteen (15) days from the date of this announcement. Submit information to Rebecca Mullenax, MS 1019, Reference: 000HCC36-2005-21313, DHHS/PHS/CDC/NIOSH/ALOSH, 1095 Willowdale Road, Morgantown, WV 26505. This is a simplified acquisition with an estimated value of less then $100,000. The intent of this synopsis is to determine if any sources exist, therefore, no solicitation will be issued. If no responses are received within 15 days, award will be made to MassTech, Inc. Award will be made under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(C)(1) without further notices being issued. All responses received shall be considered by the Government.
