LI-COR Biotech: Odyssey M Chemi/Fluor Imaging Bundle Standard

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Institute (NCI) Center for Cancer Research (CCR) is seeking information regarding the availability and capability of qualified sources to provide a LI-COR Biotech: Odyssey M Chemi/Fluor Imaging Bundle Standard. The system should have various features such as fluorescence and luminescence detection, trans and epi illumination, and must be housed within a single imaging system. The purpose of this acquisition is to procure a new, commercially available protein imaging system to replace the old, outdated, and failing protein imager currently in the laboratory branch. • The system must have all functionalities to include fluorescence and luminescence detection, trans and epi illumination, and must be housed within a single imaging system. • The system must have two sets of Red/Green/Blue LEDs as the source for trans and epi illumination. • Fluorescence detection must be based upon line scanning utilizing scientific Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductors (sCMOS). • The laser lifetime must be a minimum of 20,000 hours of operation. • The system must have four solid state laser diodes emitting at 488 nm +5nm, 520 nm +5 nm, 685 nm +5 nm, and 785 nm + 5 nm respectively as the means of excitation for the fluorescent labels.
