SAM.gov SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE Solicitation Number: 75N95023Q00380 Title:� 1260 Infinity II Vial Sampler, Agilent or Equal Classification Code:� 6640 � Laboratory Equipment and Supplies NAICS Code:� 334516 � Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing Size Standard:� 1,000 Employees Description:� Agilent (or Equal) 1260 Infinity II Vial Sampler with upgrades. This is a Sources Sought notice. This is NOT a solicitation for proposals, proposal abstracts, or quotations. The purpose of this notice is to obtain information regarding the availability and capability of all qualified sources to perform a potential requirement. This notice is issued to help determine the availability of qualified companies technically capable of meeting the Government requirement, to determine the method of acquisition, and availability of domestic sources manufactured in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available commercial quantities and of a satisfactory quality.� It is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately award a contract.� Responses will not be considered as proposals or quotes.� No award will be made as a result of this notice.� The Government will NOT be responsible for any costs incurred by the respondents to this notice.� This notice is strictly for research and information purposes only. Small businesses are encouraged to respond. For equipment/supply requirements, responses must include the place of manufacturing (i.e. address if supply/equipment is a domestic end product and include country of manufacture). For equipment/supply requirements, small businesses must also address the size status of the manufacturer under the applicable NAICS code (i.e. address Non-Manufacturer Rule). Background:� The Analytical Chemistry Core (ACC) within the Division of Preclinical Innovation (DPI) at NCATS maintains a state-of-the-art laboratory whose mission is to support translational research throughout the Center by providing analytical chemistry services involving the isolation, purification, identification, and analysis of therapeutic modalities for targeted disease states. Purification and analysis capabilities encompass small molecules, peptides, proteins, ADCs, and lipids. A wide variety of instrumentation is maintained to facilitate Chemistry and Biology efforts focused on early-stage drug discovery and development. In order to achieve our objectives, various analytical methods, techniques, technologies are applied including high performance/ultra high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC/UPLC-MS). The ACC utilizes a centralized sample purification and processing platform for the isolation, purification, concentration, and distribution of compounds in the range of milligrams to grams that will be used in biological testing. Major and minor components (< 0.1 percent) are isolated for additional testing and characterization as required. A variety of high performance and ultra high-performance liquid chromatographs are utilized to determine identity and purity with the capability of automated high-throughput analysis on single quadrupole liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry instrumentation. An Agilent Infinity II HPLC-MS instrument is being connected to the Lab2Lab pneumatic tubing transfer system as a means of increasing the efficiency and productivity of this workflow. However, the current Vial Sampler module on the LC-MS instrument is an older model that is not compatible with the Receiver module of the Lab2Lab system. Therefore, the current Vial Sampler module needs to be replaced with a new Agilent 1260 Infinity II Vial Sampler. Purpose and Objectives: The purpose of this procurement is to purchase a replacement Agilent 1260 Infinity Vial Sampler for the Analytical Chemistry Core (ACC) withing the Division of Preclinical Innovation (DPI) at NCATS. Project Description: �Agilent (or Equal)1260 Infinity II Vial Sampler Salient Characteristics: The unique features of the Agilent (or Equal) 1260 Infinity II Vial Sampler are: G7129A (or Equal)- 1260 Infinity II Vialsampler for use up to 600 bar. Includes 100 uL metering device and a 100 uL sample loop plus integrated needle flush port. With the following configuration: Drawer kit selection: Classic drawer kit (10x10 v.)
