- Description
- Combined Synopsis/Solicitation: FDA-SOL-1130471 Two (2) Online Near Infrared, UV/VIS and CCD Camera Spectroscopic Detectors This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, (STREAMLINED PROCEDURES FOR EVALUATION AND SOLICITATION FOR COMMERCIAL ITEMS) as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation. This solicitation is issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ), using the Simplified Acquisitions Procedures of FAR 13. The solicitation document/incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through the current Federal Acquisition Circular: FAC 2005-64. The Government intends to award a Firm Fixed-Price contract. 1.) DESCRIPTION. The Food and Drug Administration’s CDER’s Division of Monoclonal Antibodies is seeking to purchase a quantity of 2 fiberless online near infrared, UV/Vis and CCD camera spectroscopic detectors with flow cells and all accessories and software needed to integrate between our Sartorius BDCUII 6 by 5L bioreactor system and Waters Patrol UPLC system. The goal is to monitor and control online cell culture process parameters by correlating the near infrared, ultraviolet, and visible light spectra with media nutrient and bioproducts, as well as cell growth and protein production kinetics, via statistical modeling by principle component analysis, partial least squares, and multivariate data analysis. The data generated must be imported into the Sartorius bioreactor control and modeling softwares. 2) PRICING CHART: All charges must be included in the quote. Any charges presented after contract award shall be unacceptable. Item # Description Qty.
