Description

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has an anticipated sole source stand alone purchase order requirement for �A semi-automated pipettor that can fill 96- and 384-well microplates. �This equipment will be used to increase our throughput for accurately measuring phytonutrients and enzyme activity in potato. A key requirement is accuracy and precision when dealing with very small amounts of liquids, otherwise the pipettor will not meet our needs or be useable in our program. We require an accuracy of less than 2% error and a precision of less than 3% error at 1 ul, 5 ul. Similarly, the instrument must be able to dispense over the volume range we require (0.5-300 microliters) without the need to switch heads and in increments of 0.1 ul. Other desirable traits include being ergonomic with the ability to adjust speed settings for different liquids, multidispense, aspirate, reverse pipette and blow out. NAICS Code: 334516 and the size standard is 1000 This notice is for informational purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. USDA/ARS/WRRC in Albany, CA intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) with Eppendorf. Please send any replies to this Notice of Intent to Sole Source Notice by March 20, 2021 at 12:00 pm, Pacific Standard Time
