Description
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) seeks to purchase a single Agilent‑BioTek multimode plate reader to replace an outdated unit. The instrument must support absorbance, fluorescence (including polarization and time‑resolved), luminescence, and UV‑Vis detection, with both monochromator and filter optics, rapid read speeds, temperature control, and compatibility with existing software (Gen5) and liquid handling systems. Delivery is required to the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD within 30 days of order receipt, followed by installation, training, and a one‑time payment 30 days after receipt. This is a firm‑fixed‑price purchase order.
• One multimode microplate reader (96‑, 384‑, and 1,536‑well formats)
• Required detection modes: fluorescence intensity, polarization, time‑resolved, luminescence, UV‑Vis absorbance
• Monochromator‑ and filter‑based optics in a single unit, top & bottom reading
• Luminescence sensitivity ≤ 5 attomoles ATP (384‑well)
• Read speed ≤ 6 s (96‑well) and ≤ 11 s (384‑well)
• Multi‑zone temperature control up to 70 °C, ±0.2 °C accuracy at 37 °C, condensation control
• Compatibility with Gen5 software, existing liquid injection system, and low‑volume (2 µL) plate accessories
• Automatic focus, path‑length correction, shaking modes (linear, orbital, double orbital)
• Standard warranty, post‑warranty service support, compliance with lab safety standards
• Delivery to 10 Center Drive, Building 10, Bethesda, MD; installation, training, and payment terms specified.
