ProCyte Reagent Kit and 3 more items

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University awarded a contract to IDEXX Distribution Inc. on September 30, 2026, with a cumulative value of $1,548.00. The contract encompasses the supply of veterinary diagnostic laboratory equipment and consumables, with all deliveries directed to McClendon Diamond at a Virginia location (540-231-9013). The specific line items include two ProCyte Reagent Kits at $507.95 each, one Catalyst SmartQC unit at $124.10, three Ionized Calcium Cassettes at $94.25 each, and one Respiratory/Blood Gases Cassette at $125.25.

These products represent consumable supplies and calibration materials for automated hematology and blood gas analysis systems commonly used in veterinary diagnostic laboratories. The contract award reflects Virginia Tech's procurement of replacement reagents and quality control cassettes necessary for ongoing laboratory operations and equipment maintenance. The relatively modest contract value indicates this is a routine replenishment order rather than a major capital equipment purchase.
