- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation and a separate written solicitation will not be issued. This solicitation number is NIH-NIDDK-05-428, and is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ). The solicitation/contract will include all applicable provisions and clauses in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2005-03. The North American Industry Classification (NAICS) Code is 339111 and the business size standard is 500 Employees. However, this solicitation is not set aside for small business. This acquisition is being conducted using Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR Part 13. It is the intent of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) to purchase a Triple Resonance Inverse Detection Z-Gradient TCI CRYOPROBE? with both 1H and 13C Observation for Avance? 600 Console from Bruker Biospin 15 Fortune Drive, Manning Park, Billerica, MA 01821. Mandatory Technical requirements of the cryoprobe: 1. Shall be a triple resonance (1H, 13C, 15N) inverse detection probe for 1H and 13C observation with 15N, 1H and 13C decoupling. 2. Shall be equipped with a z-gradient coil 3. The S/N ratio for 1H observe shall be >4000:1 for 0.1% ethylbenzene (over 200 Hz noise). 4. The S/N ratio on the anomeric proton of a 0.5 mg sucrose/ml D2O sample shall be >440:1 5. The 1H pulse width shall be <8?s 6. The 13C pulse width shall be <13?s 7. The 15N pulse width shall be <50?s 8. The 1H non-spinning lineshape on a 1% chloroform sample shall be <12/24 Hz (0.55%/0.11%) 9. The recovery of the magnetic field homogeneity shall be such that a signal acquired 200 ms after a 1 ms gradient applied simultaneously in the z direction at 50% of maximum power, differs by less than 3% from that acquired without the preceding gradient pulse. This shall be measured for a sample of 2 mM sucrose in D2O solution, using 1 Hz exponential line broadening and identical phasing. 10. The probe shall be fully compatible with the existing Avance 600 MHz Bruker spectrometer in LCP This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations however, all responses received, within 15 days from the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government.
