(xvi) For information regarding the solicitation, please contact Jared Zinsmeister at jared.zinsmeister@va.gov Insert (A) Salient Characteristics MICROPLATE SPECTROPHOTOMETER: The MIRECC Biofluids Biobank requires a microplate-based, monochromator spectrophotometer capable of analyzing quantities as low as 2microliters. The use of this instrument will support the proper use and disposition of clinical research biofluid materials kept in this national resource. The instrument must also provide capacity to preform standard endpoint, kinetic, well area scanning and spectral scanning measurements for biochemical assays in support of the Biobank mission. The instrument must have the following capabilities: Must have large color touchscreen interface. Must have available USB flash drive capacity to transfer output data to research computers for analysis. Must be compatible with 6- to 384-well microplates. Must have complete onboard data reduction software. Must have onboard Windows 8 Operating System or better. Must have wavelength range from 200 nm to 999 nm in 1 nm increments. Must have an optional standard cuvette port. Must be compatible with 2 L low volume microplate accessory with 16- or 48-sample microspots for direct nucleic acid quantification and other applications. Must have temperature control to 65dC with a 4-zone temperature control system, with uniformity across the microplate of ±0.5 dC at 37 dC to limit edge effects in incubated assays. Must have temperature gradient option to prevent condensation in lidded plates. Must have linear, orbital and double-orbital plate shaking. Must perform endpoint, kinetic, well area scanning and spectral scanning measurements. Must read 96 wells in 8 seconds. Must be compatible with major automated microplate handling systems. Must detect ODs up to 4.00 OD. MICRO CENTRIFUGE: The MIRECC Biofluids Biobank requires a refrigerated microcentrifuge capable of centrifugation of 1.5-2.0mL microtubes.
