2745425-Nitrate and Nitrite Test Strips. Standard and 2 more items

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University awarded a contract to ETS Hach Environmental Hydrolab Great L on July 10, 2026, valued at $166.00. The contract encompasses the procurement of water quality testing supplies and associated shipping. The deliverables include two units of Nitrate and Nitrite Test Strips at a unit price of $36.10 each and two units of Reactive Orthophosphate (as PO4-) Test at a unit price of $39.95 each, with standard ground shipping charged at $14.20. All materials are to be delivered to Natasha Bell at the contracting organization's location in Virginia.

The contract represents a straightforward supply acquisition for laboratory or field-based water quality analysis capabilities. The specific test strips indicate the university's need for analytical instruments to measure nitrogen and phosphorus compounds in environmental samples, likely in support of research or monitoring activities. The minimal contract value and limited scope suggest this is either a purchase order for consumable supplies or represents a partial award against a broader procurement vehicle.
