- Description
- Justification Statement of Work The National Institutes of Health intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Loyola University Chicago. The NIH intends seeks software programming and data analysis to develop calibration models for converting DiaSorin RIA 25(OH)D assay values to the new LC-MS/MS assay values. Efforts related to the work being sought include: 1. Evaluate the impact of different methods for imputing laboratory values less than the Limit of Detection (LOD). 2. Evaluate the trends in 25(OH)D in the NHANES III - NHANES 2006 data set after calibration. Please review the attached justification for further information.
