- Description
- The National Institutes of Health (NIH), Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) intends to procure from Illumina Inc, 9885 Towne Centre Drive, San Diego, CA 92121, a quantity of one (1) HumanOmni Express -12 v1.0 DNA Analysis Kit PN: WG-311-1121. The Institute intends to procure these services by other than full and open competition under the authority of FAR 6.302. The reagents/kit is required to generate high quality genotype genome-wide in an important addictions dataset to be used for targeted analyses of candidate genes. The Illumina HumanOmni Express kit is compatible and can be used immediately with the existing TECAN liquid handling robot currently being used in the lab. The HumanOmni Express kit has the highest Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) density currently available and utilizes a haplotype maximization approach to SNP selection, thus able to capture a high amount of genetic information. The call rates are reported to be higher with the HumanOmni Express compared to other platforms and the error rates and sample failure rates are reported to be lower with the HumanOmni Express compared to other platforms.
