- The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), Research Triangle Park NC, intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Illumina Inc, 9885 Towne Centre Drive, San Diego, CA 92121, pursuant to 41 U.S.C.253(c)(1)--Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This request is for gene expression analysis as follows: 1) WG-314-1002- HumanMeth)lation450 DNA Analysis BeadChip Kit 96 samples (Qty 1 kits) Kit contains (8) BeadChips, along with reagents for amplifying, fragmenting, hybridizing, labeling and detecting ninety-six DNA samples. 2) DA-905-1096 - Human Whole-Genome DASL HT Assay with UDG (96 Samples) (Qty 1) Includes a Whole-Genome DASL HT DAP, eight HumanHT-12 v4 BeadChips, each able to analyze twelve samples, plus reagents for amplifying, hybridize, washing and processing 96 RNA samples (with UD). The BeadChip Kits ability to maintain continuity of experimental procedures is crucial to the success of NIEHS Division of Intramural Research and their efforts in continuing to perform the mission of the NIH. The use of the Ilumina HumanMethylation450 DNA Analysis and Human Whole Genome DASL HT Assay with UDG BeadChips allow the NMC to provide the Institute with high quality data using the latest in genomics technology. Performing these experiments is to assess the gene expression and methylation status throughout the entire Human genome. Microarray chips made by this manufacturer are compatible with our Illumina scanner, hybridization equipment and bioinformatics database. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability by responding to this requirement by submitting written capabilities/specifications to the Purchasing Agent at the address stated above.
