Ants, Living, Unit of 100-200 and 2 more items

Germanna Community College in Virginia awarded contract PO05450427 to Carolina Biological Supply on August 25, 2026, with a total cumulative value of $121.00. The contract encompasses the delivery of laboratory and scientific materials to Stephanie Marsich at the institution. The procured items include living ant colonies (quantity of 100-200 units per order), two no-wire test tube racks with 60-hole capacity designed for 16-millimeter tubes, and associated small parcel freight charges via Federal Express.

The line-item pricing reflects unit costs of $40.95 for the ant colony, $22.50 per test tube rack ($45.00 total for two units), and $35.45 for shipping services. These materials are typical of supplies required for biological or life sciences educational programming at the community college level. The contract award does not specify an explicit performance period beyond the award date; however, the relatively modest contract value and nature of the deliverables indicate this represents a single procurement transaction rather than an ongoing supply arrangement.
