India Ink soln., 0.2 Percent in PBS buffer and 1 more item

The University of Virginia issued purchase order A207_PO-0456536 to Life Technologies Corporation on July 9, 2026, for laboratory reagents and staining materials totaling $491. The contract encompasses two line items: India Ink solution at 0.2 percent concentration in Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) buffer, priced at $108 per unit, and a LIVE/DEAD Fixable Blue Dead Cell Stain Kit designed for ultraviolet excitation with a capacity of 400 assays, priced at $383.68 per unit. Both items are to be delivered to Trudy D Robinson at the contracting organization.

This procurement represents a routine supply acquisition by the University of Virginia, an institution located in Virginia, for research or laboratory use. The specified materials are consistent with cell biology and flow cytometry applications, where viability staining and contrast enhancement are standard analytical procedures. The contract's modest cumulative value of $491 reflects a single-order purchase of specialized laboratory consumables rather than a comprehensive service or equipment contract.
