- Description
- THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONSTITUTES THE ONLY SOLICITATION AND A SEPARATE SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial supplies prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6 under Simplified Acquisition procedures in Subpart 13.5, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; Quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The solicitation number for this acquisition is NHLBI-CSB-(HG)-2011-074-RSF and is being issued as a Request for Quote. The incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 05-48. This acquisition will be processed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures. The associated North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 325414 and the business size standard is 500 employees. The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), has a requirement for one Luminex #FM3D000 Flexmap 3D System with XPONENT Software and one Touch Screen Monitor. The bead-based Luminex technology is an assay platform that allows for both single and multiplexed measurements of both mRNA and proteins of interest. It is a well established platform for both HTS and diagnostics from animal samples, including tissues and fluids. It is therefore, a true bench-to-bed assay platform. The basis of the technology: 1) the Luminex color-coded beads, called microspheres (100 distinct sets). Each bead set can be coated with a reagent specific to a particular bioassay (antibody for proteins or oligo probes for mRNA), allowing the capture and detection of desired specific analytes from a sample. 2) Detection of each analyte on each distinct microsphere using Luminex analyzer. The Luminex analyzer (Luminex FLEXMAP-3D) resembles a flow cytometer with lasers to excite the internal dyes that identify each microsphere particle, and also any reporter dye captured during the assay. The FLEXMAP-3D accommodates 96- and 384-well plates and therefore is compatible with standard HTS microplates.
