Background and description of requirement: This is for Operation Warp Speed/Countermeasures Acceleration Group (OWS/CAG team). The FRNA50 experiments are part of Operation Warp Speed (OWS)/Countermeasures Acceleration Group (CAG) project. OWS/CAG is a broad government project intended to leverage available resources with the aim of identifying and producing medical countermeasures to protect the US population against SARS-CoV-2.� The work of the IRF involves evaluation of the antiviral activity of small-molecule compounds and of biologics (antibodies and related products) against SARS-CoV-2 in cell-based infection assays and of evaluation of DMID-selected biologics in a hamster COVID model.��� To determine the antiviral effect, the IRF is using a Fluorescence Reduction Neutralization Assay (FRNA) in 384-well format.� The requested brand is for 384 plates, which are treated for cell-culture applications and have a barrier to prevent evaporation during the incubation periods required by the assay.�� Use of 384 well plates will allow IRF to increase sample throughput, by decreasing processing time for sample plates, in order to provide timely results to the OWS/CAG team.
