- Description
- The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Center for Plant Health Science and Technology (CPHST) located in Buzzards Bay, MA, intends to issue a sole source Purchase Order to Horiba Instruments, Inc. located in Irvine, CA. The purchase order is for Horiba brand ELISA test kits under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) and 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1). The test kits are used to determine pesticide content for the following pesticides: dinotefuran, emamectin benzoate, clothianidin and acetamiprid. These kits quantify pesticide residue in plant samples that are collected from trees treated to control the Asian Longhorned beetle and the Emerald ash borer and are a part of on-going research studies into treatment efficacy. The Horiba brand ELISA test kits are the only commercially available test kits using ELISA technology that are able to detect these pesticides. The ELISA method is far cheaper than traditional analytical methods (HPLC, GC/MS) and is regularly used in our diagnostic laboratory. The Horiba brand ELISA test kits to be purchased are listed below: 3100163958 Acetamiprid Test Kits 3100176117 Clothianidin Test Kits 3100176146 Dinotefuran Test Kits A Purchase Order is anticipated with a not-to-exceed value of $28,850.00, plus shipping. This notice is for informational purposes only. No formal solicitation will be issued. Any questions or inquiries must be e-mailed to the attention of the Contracting Specialist listed below as the point of contact in this notice by the response date for consideration.
