Air-liquid interface (ALI) exposure system with installation and training post award and one year of warranty.

The US Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD) requires the acquisition of an air-liquid interface (ALI) exposure system with installation and training post-award and one year of warranty. The system should provide controlled environmental chamber with aerosol exposure capabilities, including gas, vapor, particulate, and mixed aerosols, to human ALI models. The system must have temperature and humidity control, real-time monitoring, and be modular, versatile, and flexible to adapt to different test article exposure characteristics. The system should also provide high-quality and repeatable data comparable to published scientific literature. Some key features of the required system include: • Electrostatic deposition to maximize particle deposition on tissue models • Ability to hold different ALI insert and tissue types • Real-time monitoring of temperature, humidity, and airflow • Compatibility with different atmosphere generation systems • Easy maintenance, cleaning, and turnaround times for the next experiment • User-friendly design for someone with minimal to moderate experience with using ALI systems The contract award is anticipated to be made by 30 September 2026, and the installation and training should be completed by the same date.
