MSTFA & Columns

This award represents a small‑scale, direct purchase by Cuyahoga County for laboratory consumables needed for analytical chemistry work. The county purchased 5 vials of MSTFA (a derivatization reagent) and 3 SPE Clean Screen columns, with a total spend just under $3,000. The acquisition was processed through the county’s informal procurement portal and classified as a direct one‑time purchase under $5,000. • Item 1: MSTFA (10 vials/pkg), 5 vials total, $405.00 • Item 2: SPE Clean Screen Columns, 3 units total, $2,592.00 • Procurement type: informal, likely sole‑source due to low value and specialized lab supplies.
