Rat Brain Array Coil as specified herein.

Grand Total 1 through 2

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR), Division of Neurotoxicology is in need of a Rat Brain Array. Eight channel 1H phased array for rat brain coil will be used with 7 tesla Bruker Biospec MRI scanner for high resolution imaging and proton spectroscopy of rats' brains to evaluate various neuropathologies, including neurotoxicity, apoptosis, neurodegenerative diseases, etc. This coil is specifically designed for rat brain applications and tuned to the specific frequency of the proton resonance at 7 tesla magnetic field strength and is anatomically configured to be applied to rat’s head. This coil is the replacement and a significant step-up from the original 4-channel rat brain phased array (supplied with MRI system by Bruker), which is currently not functioning properly (one channel has extremely low signal-to-noise ratio, which introduces unacceptable level of noise in the resultant MR image of spectrum). High resolution proton imaging and spectroscopy allows detecting the neurotoxicity event with very high sensitivity and specificity. The efforts of standardization and validation of this method are ongoing and it may become a frontier application in brain toxicity imaging biomarker research.

In-vivo non invasive scanning will be performed to build T2 relaxation parametric maps and metabolic profiles of animals' brains after different types of pathology including chemical and biological intoxication, drug abuse, apoptosis, ageing, etc. These maps will be correlated with other readouts of neurotoxicity (histopathology, behavior, etc.) to characterize the sensitivity and specificity of MRI imaging of neurotoxicity for further qualification of MRI neurotoxicity biomarker. If proved feasible such a biomarker will significantly improve our understanding of the mechanisms of neurotoxicity and the treatment pathways. Also, if applied in pharmaceutical research it may lead to the development of safer and cheaper drugs for human use with the minimum neurotoxic liability. This endeavor will require the purchase of the 1H phased array for rat brain actively decoupled 8 channels coil/array.

Minimum requirements for the Rat Brain Array are:

- resonant frequencies of the proton at 7 tesla

- 8-channels phased array design

- Anatomically shaped for the adult rat head

- Active decoupling for receive only operation using Bruker MRI scanner

- Compatible with existing MRI scanner (Bruker Avance III)

Systems shall be warranted for not less than one (1) year from FDA acceptance of the system(s) to include on-site training. Warranty service shall include trouble-shooting capabilities based on complete knowledge of the entire system, immediate access to replacement parts, and immediate access to system improvements and updates. Phone and email technical support shall be included for a minimum of 1-year.

FOB Point Destination. All items shall include shipping, handling and in-side delivery to the destination identified herein. Delivery/installation date is within 180 calendar days after receipt of order. FOB Point of Delivery for Services and Supplies will be the FDA located at 3900 NCTR Road, Jefferson, AR 72079. Payment shall be made after government acceptance.
