- Description
- B-1���� Background The Denver Laboratory and the Pacific Northwest Laboratory require additional QIACube units so that the new instrument could be used for automated extractions for complex environmental samples for EHEC (Enterohemorrhagic E. coli) analysis, a routine regulatory analysis, in addition to the current use for Whole Genome Sequencing for regulatory isolates. These units could also potentially be used for any other pathogen analyses that require an extraction step.� The ability to provide a more consistent DNA yield as compared to manual extraction methods and throughput by automating this step helps conserve time and resources, as well as protect against potential contamination routes inherent in manual extraction.� B-2 Statement of Work QIACube and accessories and service from Qiagen (multiple catalog numbers see below). Minimum Technical Requirements System Requirements Altitude- Unit must be able to function at high altitude, or up to 6500ft.
