They will be using custom assays to access responses to RSV Pre-F, Post-F, Ga, Gb and N viral proteins using the MSD Elisa platform. The Vaccine Research Center (VRC) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was established to facilitate research in vaccine development. The VRC is dedicated to improving global human health through the rigorous pursuit of effective vaccines for human diseases.

PPD is only one source that is capable of providing this service required at the level of quality required. Therefore PPD Labs must be the vendor through which this service provided. The use of the MSD assay platform is necessary to evaluate the human immune response to the VRC's pre-FRSV vaccine (DSCav-1) because it is s robust, efficient and proven method for evaluating antibody specificity, in response to the vaccine, in a systematic and high throughout manner otherwise unavailable to us in a research lab setting. The custom assay plates are to be used in this project are manufactured by AstraZeneca and proprietary.� The proposed contractor, PPD Laboratories has given exclusive rights to use these assays. The statutory authority for this sole source requirement is 41 U.S.C.1901 (e) (2) as implemented by FAR 13.106-1 only one responsible source and no other supply of service will satisfy agency requirements.
