Vari-Select Staining Buffer, 1ml, Catalog # CUSTOM1, 34 EA. They do not have any authorized third-party resellers for these products. Bio-legend is the only company that provides Abs that are compatible with the 3-detection methods Center for Human Immunology (CHI) wants to implement, Fluorochrom based, Metal based, and DNA based. Matching reagents from the same vendor will increase results reliability. These kits will be used to continue a study started previously. In testing with similar kits from other companies, data on the same samples run between two providers of similar kits could not be compared due to variability in antibody clones, buffer formulations, protocols, etc. Additionally, similar kits from other vendors do not contain all the markers that are contained in the panels from Bio-legend. This is not a request for proposal. This will be a firm fixed price contract in accordance with the statutory authority for this sole source requirement 41 U.S.C. 253 (c) (1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1 only one source available, no substitutions possible, and equipment must be compatible with existing systems. A determination not to compete this requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. Offers must be submitted no later than 1 pm Eastern Standard Time, July 30, 2018 to blandl@mail.nih.gov.
