- Description
- The Biological Testing Branch (BTB), Developmental Therapeutics Program (DTP), Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis (DCTD). National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), is seeking organizations having the capability to provide a genetic monitoring resource for the BTB. Genetic monitoring for quality assurance will accompany the long standing efforts in microbiological quality control, in order that each animal produced from rederived stock, under our production contracts, is as well defined as possible. The contractor will develop a genotyping panel for genetic monitoring of approximately 27 inbred mice and 3 inbred rat strains by an approved DNA-based method. The contractor must also be able to perform additional methods of genetic testing i.e.; skin grafts and biochemical markers as required. The validation and verification of the genetic status of the inbred colonies will be performed at a rate of approximately 15-30 animals per week. It is anticipated that one (1) contract will be awarded for this effort, as a result of this RFP, for a period of sixty (60) months. This RFP is a recompetition of the ?Biochemical Genetic Monitoring of Rodents? project being performed by Texas A&M University, Contract No. N02-CM-32402 and the ?Iso-Antigenic Typing of Mouse Strains? project being performed by Research Triangle Institute, Contract No. N02-32403, and will be available on or about June 14, 2007 by written request from Ms. Patricia A, White, Contract Specialist. Management Operations and Support Branch, NCI-Frederick, Building 427, Room 10, Frederick, Maryland 21702-1201, (301) 846-5473. The deadline for submission of proposals will be on or about July 27, 2007. Requests for RFP must cite the above RFP number. No collect calls will be accepted.
