Title:� Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with Heating Units NAICS Code: 334516- Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing6 (Small Business Size Standards, 1,000 Average Number of Employees) Product Service Code: 6640- Laboratory Equipment and Supplies Place of Performance:� Bethesda, MD 20892 POTS: 23-009494 Description This is a notice of intent, not a request for a quotation. A solicitation document will not be issued and quotations will not be requested. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) intends to award a fixed price purchase order to Miltenyi Biotec, Inc. located in Auburn, California 95602-9562 on a sole source basis to provide quantity one (1) Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with Heating Units. The Department of Transfusion Medicine has a requirement for the benchtop fully automated Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with Heaters.� The gentleMACS Octo Dissociator is specifically designed to address the challenges associated with FFPE tissue processing for next-generation sequencing (NGS) experiments.� The gentleMACS Octo Dissociator is specifically designed to address the challenges associated with FFPE tissue processing for next-generation sequencing (NGS) experiments. It provides precise control over temperature and mechanical disruption, enabling efficient recovery of nucleic acids from FFPE samples. The instrument employs controlled mechanical disruption combined with adjustable heating elements to optimize the process of tissue dissociation. The heaters help to soften paraffin and minimize the crosslinking of nucleic acids, enhancing the accessibility of DNA and RNA for subsequent extraction. The instrument's gentle disruption approach reduces the risk of further degradation and ensures the preservation of valuable genetic material. Furthermore, the gentleMACS Octo Dissociator is a versatile instrument that can process multiple FFPE tissue samples simultaneously in a closed system. Miltenyi Biotec, Inc. is the sole and original equipment manufacturer of the gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with Heating Units.� Miltenyi Biotech, Inc is the only known source capable of offering the Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with Heating Units.� These products are offered exclusively by Miltenyi Biotec B.V. & Co. KG, its subsidiaries and distributors. �They are not available from other vendors.
