- COMBINED SYNOPSIS / SOLICITATION Title: Brand Name or Equal BioTek Synergy H1 Hybrid Multimode Reader (i) This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6 as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotations are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. (ii) The solicitation number is 75N95019Q00332 and the solicitation is issued as a request for quotation (RFQ). This acquisition is for a commercial item or service and is conducted under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13-Simplified Acquisition Procedures and FAR Part 12-Acquisition of Commercial Items, and is not expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. (iii) The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular 2019-05, dated August 13, 2019. (iv) The associated NAICS code 334516 and the small business size standard 1,000 employees. This requirement is full and open with no set-aside restrictions. (v) The National Institute on Aging (NIA) Translational Gerontology Branch requires the purchase of a luminometer and plate reader able to simultaneously read multiple absorbance and fluorescent wavelengths, as well as time resolved fluorescence. A multimodal plate reader is needed to perform in vitro and in vivo assay requiring multiple simultaneous absorbance or fluorescence readings, as well as flash luminescence and time-resolved fluorescence (for example for FRET probes) utilizing various plates formats (i.e. from 6 to 348 wells). (vi) Generic Name of Product: Multimode Microplate Reader Brand Name of Product: BioTek Synergy H1 Hybrid Multimode Reader Part # H1M - Quantity 1 -Synergy TM H1M is a Monochromator-based multimode microplate reader with top and bottom fluorescence intensity, UV-visible absorbance and luminescence detection. Temperature control to 45℃ and shaking. Includes Gen5 data analysis software. Part # GEN5 - Quantity 1 - Gen 5 TM software offers advanced reader control functionality, powerful data analysis and flexible exporting/reporting tools combined in one easy-to-use software package. License for 5 installations. Part # 1210008 - Quantity 1 - Gas Controller for CO2 and O2 control, silver. For use with Synergy H1 Hybrid Microplate reader. Part # 8040037 - Quantity 1 - Dual reagent injector module (silver). Includes two syringes, two reagent bottles, two bottle holders and inlet tubing. Part # 8040038 - Quantity 1 - Dual reagent injector accessories, includes feedthrough assembly with straight dispense tips. Part # SVCICT1 - Quantity 1 - SVC BASIC INSTL & TRAINING TIER 2 Part # SVCONFWU2 - Quantity 1 - FIELD WARRANTY UPGRADE/2 Part # NONIVD - Quantity 1 - LABEL NOT FOR HUMAN USE Salient Characteristics: Must be available with hybrid optical system combining a monochromator fluorescence optical system for flexibility with a filter-based fluorescence optical system for high performance in the same instrument. The monochromator optics and the filter optics should each have their own independent light source, detector and light path to prevent compromised performance. Monochromator based instrument must be upgradable for the filter-based optics option. Must have quadruple grating optical design (two gratings per monochromator) for better spectral scanning performance. Must have a dynamic range of 7 decades for fluorescence intensity measurements. Must be able to dispense reagents in all detection modes. Must be compatible with 2 μL low volume microplate accessory with 16 or 48 sample microspots for direct nucleic acid quantification as well as fluorescence and luminescence measurements. Must be available with gas control option for CO2/ O2 or CO2 only environmental control. Instrument must be upgradable for the gas control option. Must be able to control temperature to 45 °C with a 4-zone temperature control system, with uniformity across the microplate of ±0.2 °C at 37 °C to limit edge effects in incubated assays. Must have automatic z-height adjustment to automatically accommodate for various microplate heights and fluid levels. Must have automatic individual well-by-well absorbance path length correction to automatically calculate 1 cm path length corrected results and compensate for pipetting errors. Must be able to measure standard cuvettes in all detection modes within the temperature-controlled reading environment. Must have an available microplate stacker option. Quotation must include shipping costs. (vii) Delivery Date: Approximately 3-4 weeks after receipt of order. Delivery Address: 251 Bayview Blvd, Baltimore, MD 21224 (viii) The provision at FAR clause 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors - Commercial Items, applies to this acquisition.
