- Description
- The VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System, intends to negotiate on a Sole Source basis with Government Scientific Source, Inc. 12351 Sunrise Valley, VA 20191, to award a contract to them, to furnish the following Electrophysiology Medical equipment, manufactured by Molecular Devises and Leica BioSystems, based on the reasons stated in the attached Sole Source Justification, as a total turnkey solution that meets the minimum need of the Government.: The following Electrophysiology Equipment, manufactured by Molecular Devices and Leica Bio Systems are required: Molecular Devices data acquisition system consists of three compatible parts. The MultiClamp 700B Microelectrode Amplifier, Digidata 1550 data acquisition system and the pCLAMP 10 Software are the most widely used for a wide variety of electrophysiology recordings in laboratories worldwide. Together this kit enables the recording for up to 8 cells simultaneously to study the function of neural networks. It also achieves high-resolution data acquisition by capturing more data points in less time. (See List of Molecular Devices equipment below) MOLECULAR DEVICES MultiClamp 700B Microelectrode Amplifier Each 1 (Open Market) MOLECULAR DEVICES DIGIDATA 1550 DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM Each 1 (Open Market) MOLECULAR DEVICES PCLAMP 10 Standard Each 1 LEICA Biosystems Vibrating microtome for cutting the slices for recording is needed: The Leica VT1200S microtome is a fully automated vibrating blade microtome designed to cut fresh and fixed tissue in Neuroscience. It has minimal vertical deflection which protects delicate specimens during sectioning. The double edged razor injector helps to avoid contamination of specimens. The Magnetic specimen holders support easy specimen handling and reproducible orientation. (See List of Leica Biosystems equipment below). LEICA BIOSYS 1491200S001 Leica VT1200 S Config. Each 1 (Open Market) LEICA BIOSYS 14048142075 Vibrocheck Each 1 (Open Market) This Notice of Intent is not a request for competitive proposals.
