- Description
- The purpose of this amendment is to answer questions asked by vendors. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged. Q:A total of 8 fluorescent parameters is required on the bid - what lasers are being requested? The Blue laser is always standard - but the choices include a violet, yellow-green, or red laser in addition to the blue. A:We also want a 405 nm (violet), 488 nm (green) and 638 nm (red) laser Q:One of the specs of the instrument is to analyze at a rate of 100,000 events per second. While the Attune can handle this electronically - our specs are lower than this number. Reason - coincident events - when running at high event rates the number of coincident events increases greatly - especially with small particle detection. Is the bid going by what the company states in the spec sheets, or is there going to be an evaluation to determine if the cytometer can truly measure this high event rate? - A:We are going by the spec sheets and published literature on companies website. Q:The solicitation stated that that the counting speed should be 100,000/sec. I don't know of any system that can do this unless it's a sorter. Is this is a sorter or analyzer? Is the speed spec correct? A: It is an analyzer only and the speed spec is correct.
