Description

Intent to Sole Source Requesting High Density Single Nucleotide Polymorphism genotyping services for gentic samples collected from swine.�We are requesting high density SNP genotyping services employing the Thermo Fisher Axiom Porcine Genotyping Array (658,000 genetic markers). The agency is in need of genotyping services that provide very high genetic resolution to describe genetic differences among individual pigs. High resolution genetic information will allow NWRC to quantify the genetically determined susceptibility of feral swine populations to African swine fever (ASF), a pathogen also of great importance for domestic pig production. Understanding acquired through the analysis of genetic patterns will inform future disease surveillance and guide future feral swine eradication efforts. GeneSeek has become the industry standard for genotyping. Accordingly, they have been contracted by collaborative agencies within USDA (Agricultural Research Services) for their genotyping needs. We have maintained ongoing contracts with GeneSeek since 2016, resulting in the generation of >14,000 genotypes using GeneSeek�s proprietary genotyping bead array. They have become a trusted Contractor - providing exceptional data quality and customer service at a competitive price. Further, GeneSeek, as an international corporation, has the permitting and infrastructure in place to receive genetic samples from foreign countries. With the samples arriving from collaborators in Uganda, valuable time and money would be saved by directly importing the samples to GeneSeek under their permit.
