- Description
- The USDA, ARS, Western Regional Research Center, Albany, California has a requirement for one robotic 454 bead enrichment/PCR purification instrument. This instrument must be compatible with the Roche 454 genome sequencer robotic enrichment module. The equipment must be able to perform PCR amplicon purification and the PCR purification must be consumable independent such that proprietary consumables and reagents are not required for system operation i.e., instrumentation may be performed through use of third party consumables and reagents, such as QIAquick PCR purification plates and Qiagen buffers. The instrument must be equipped with 8 channels of 1 mL pipets, use air-displacement pipetting technology to reduce contamination and improve reliability (no replacement necessary of syringes, valves, tubing, etc.). This instrument must be able to stack input or output plates on the deck for increased capacity, and must be able to stack tip boxes on deck for increased capacity. The instrument must be expandable/upgradable to accommodate changes in throughput needs. This solicitation incorporates the following commercial FAR clauses by reference 52.212-1, 52.212-2, 52.212-3, 52.212-4, and 52.212-5. Funds are not currently available for this acquisition and award will be made subject to the availability of funds. Interested vendors are encouraged to submit proposals (include any shipping/freight costs) with descriptive literature (refer to FAR 52.214-21) to Clarice Dixson, USDA, Agricultural Research Service, Western Regional Research Center, 800 Buchanan Street, Albany, CA 94710 or by e-mail to Clarice.Dixson@ars.usda.gov no later than 4:00PM PDST September 7, 2009.
