GENERAL REQUIRMENTS

The contractor shall provide the following reagents with the minimum stated expiration dates, lot releases and quantities per shipment as described in the table below. Note that the shipping schedule will change every contract period due to STRECK lot release dates and has to be coordinated with the laboratory.
