- Description
- The U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity(USAMRAA) in support of the Armed Forces Medical Examiner System's - Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory (AFMES-AFDIL)intends to award a sole source Firm-Fixed Price contract to Fast Forward Forensics LLC.(CAGE CODE:7BL81) for purchase of two (2) Microelectronic Systems BSD 600 Ascent Biosample Punchers. Specifically,The BSD 600 Ascent Biosample Puncher is the direct model replacement for the BSD 600 Duet, which is currently in use at AFMES-AFDIL. The Ascent is a semi-automated Biosample Puncher specifically designed for high-through-put family reference specimen (FRS) sample preparation. The BSD 600 Ascent allows for the development of fast, integrated workflows that are easily connected to the AFMES-AFDIL Laboratory Information Management system (LIMS), which allows for ease of processing sample load sheets and sample verification prior to punching. Additionally the static control system keeps static electricity from preventing the punch from entering the appropriate well in the PCR plate and an integrated plate verification camera confirms that a punch was received by the correct well (currently this is only visually verified by the end user). These improvements allow for the rapid generation of FRS sample extraction plates with reduced sample error.
