One Miltenyi Biotec (Miltenyi) automatic magnetic

The United States Department of the Interior, Interior Business Center (IBC) is seeking to acquire one Miltenyi Biotec (Miltenyi) automatic magnetic cell sorting systems (autoMACS) NEO Separator and attached MACS MiniSampler. This system will replace an existing Miltenyi autoMACS Pro magnetic cell separator that has reached its end-of-life status. The new system will provide fully automated immunomagnetic cell separation for research applications with minimal user intervention and hands-free operation. The scope of work includes installation and training. • The system must provide fully automated immunomagnetic cell separation for research applications with minimal user intervention and hands-free operation. • The system must support automated cell labeling and magnetic separation workflows within a single integrated platform. • The system must be capable of processing multiple samples in an automated manner to improve throughput, efficiency, and reproducibility. • The system must accommodate a variety of starting sample materials, including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), dissociated tissue samples, whole blood, buffy coat preparations, and bone marrow specimens. • The system must provide high-performance magnetic cell separation with reproducible recovery, purity, and viability suitable for flow cytometry and downstream cellular analyses.
