- Description
- The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) intends to award a purchase order to Beckman Coulter, 200 South Kraemer Blvd., Brea, CA 92821. The authority for this sole source is FAR Part 6.302-1. The contractor shall provide a Beckman Coulter Mdl Biomed NXp Span 8 with Gripper Liquid Handling System and Ancillary equipment and software. This instrument has the unique capability to dispense highly-accurate volumes as low as one microliter and to transfer such volumes from a 96-well microtiter plate. This is is the only instrument that includes an 8 channel dispensing head with each channel independently controlled with variable span robotics to process 384 well, 96 well, 48 well, 24 well plates and tubes sizes from a PCR microtube up to a 50 ml bottle. It is the only instrument that also supports both vacuum filtration and magnetic bead extraction/purification chemistries, and provides for independent tip liquid level sensing for use with non-constant, variable sample volumes, and that provides for 96 and 384 well microplate heating and colling capacity. Equipment must meet these standards. Only one award will be made. This is not a request for competitive proposals and a solicitation is not available. Firms that believe they can provide these services/supplies are encouraged to identify themselves and give written notice to the Contract Specialist prior to the response date found.
