The United States Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine Applied Technology (USAFSAM /FHOF) is seeking to procure Waters MV-10 ASFE Supercritical Fluid Extractor (SFE) for the preparation of a "Universal Passive Dosimeter" to meet the goals as specified under the Drug and Health Administration guidance listed for Individual Longitudinal Exposure Records and Total Exposure Health. The SFEs will considerably reduce the time and cost of the preparation of clean passive monitors used to measure occupational exposure to a wide variety of organic compounds. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 334516- Laboratory Analytical Instrument Manufacturing. Business size standard: 1,000 Employees. The proposed source is Waters Corporation.
