The US Environmental Protection Agency intends to award a contract for Functional Gene Array (FGA) Microarray Analysis for Characterization of Soil DNA Samples in support of the Office of Research and Development, National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory (NHEERL), Western Ecology Division (WED) in Corvallis and Newport, Oregon. WED is a multi-disciplinary, ecological research laboratory that performs state of the art research. The primary objective of this effort will be the characterization of the community composition and functional diversity of the soil microbial populations obtained by EPA and sent to the contractor. It is anticipated the contractor will prepare and process from 80 to 398 genomic DNA samples (supplied by USEPA) for analysis on FGA microarray. The contractor will provide assistance with data analysis, including ordination (PCA-RDA or DCA-CCA) and cluster analysis, diversity indices, and relative abundance of gene groups to get an overall picture of the statistically significant similarities and differ
