Background: The FDA National Center for Toxicological Research (NCTR) is in need of specific “Brand Name or Equal” AB-SCIEX Triple Quadrupole 5500+ trap-based mass spectrometer system, that is capable of analyzing a wide range of bioanalytical samples (plasma, urine, tissues). The system is to be applied to the analysis of trace levels of study test articles and their metabolites in bioanalytical samples, such as plasma, tissues, urine and other matrices. A quadrupole ion trap design is required to provide an instrument which has the increased sensitivity provided by the ability to trap target ions in the ion trap. Such sensitivity is required to support pharmacokinetic and toxicology studies from oral, intra-peritoneal and inhalation exposures of test articles over a wide range of administered doses, including studies done at the very low doses of test articles which mimic human exposures to some compounds. In addition, the instrument is also needed to provide qualitative information via the ion trap's ability to conduct multiple stage MS/MS fragmentations (MS to the nth power) experiments to identify unknown metabolites. This capability is needed to identify conjugated metabolites in urine and other matrices, which often require both mass spectrometry (MS)/mass spectrometry (MS) and mass spectrometry (MS)/mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (MS) experiments to characterize their structure.

To maintain consistency and reproducibility with previously utilized systems, the purchased instrumentation shall be compatible with the AB-Sciex QTRAP line of Ion- Trap based triple quadrupole mass spectrometer systems (e.g. AB-Sciex 3200 QTRAP mass spectrometer systems, which are currently in use in the laboratory. It is important to minimize analytical downtime, staff training, and the development of new method analysis protocols to ensure continuity in data quality and maintain laboratory throughput.

“Brand Name or Equal” AB-SCIEX Triple Quadrupole 5500+ trap-based mass spectrometer system that meets the following technical specifications:

1. Shall have the ability to operate the mass spectrometer as a QTRAP (QTRAP activated).

2. Shall have the ability to perform both electrospray ionization (both positive and negative modes) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (both positive and negative modes).

3. Shall have the ability to analyze for both positive and negative ions in the same acquisition method.

4. Shall be able to obtain the following, but not limited to, types of scans: Q1 (quadrupole 1) MS (mass spectrum), Q3 MS, product ion, precursor ion, neutral loss or gain, MRM (multiple reaction monitoring).

5. Shall have a mass range of at least 5-1200 Da (daltons), and a mass accuracy that is maintained over a linear dynamic range of at least three orders of magnitude.

6. Shall be able to detect analyte concentrations of interest at sub-parts per billion

(ppb) concentrations.

7. Shall be able to maintain mass stability and calibration of at least 5 parts per million

(ppm) over at least a 1 hour to support long liquid chromatography (LC) runs, and shall be able to maintain a mass accuracy of 10 ppm for the entire workday to satisfy multiple LC injections.

8. Shall have a calibration independent of source conditions to allow for adjustments to the ion source without recalibration.

9. Shall have a built-in syringe pump to infuse analyte solutions directly into the mass spectrometer.

10. Shall have a scan speed of at least 10,000 Da/second.

11. Shall provide computer systems to run instrument control, data acquisition and data quantification.

12. Computer and Software Requirements:

a. Shall provide a Windows 10 or Windows 11 based computer systems to interface with the instruments.

b. Shall provide software that allows for instrument control, data acquisition and data processing (Brand name or equal to Analyst), and in conjunction with the new mass spectrometers (MS) be able to operate previously acquired liquid chromatography (LC) systems (Agilent) each as a single integrated LC-MS system.

c. Shall provide all software and firmware updates that become available during the 1-year warranty period.

13. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) System minimum requirements:

a. Shall support very fast analytical run times (few minutes to less than 1 hour) to accommodate “next day” turnaround time for sample analysis.

b. Shall be able to support binary pump maximum operating pressures of at least 8,000 pounds per square inch (PSI) under a flow of at least 1 milliliters (mL)/minute, have a total delay volume of 600-900 microliters (ul.) or less.

c. Shall be able to inject 10 μL samples with an accuracy of at least ±0.2 μL with an injection linearity over 0.999 and a carryover under 0.004%. A flow-through needle design is required to reduce carryover.

d. The system shall include a temperature-controlled column compartment and autosampler to increase sample stability.

e. The autosampler shall be able to accommodate at least two 96-well plates, two plates capable of housing 48 standard autosampler vials, or a combination of one 96-well plate and one plate capable of housing 48 standard autosampler vials. This will enable samples to be assayed from a number of existing or future protocols.

f. An automated electronic means of tracking each column usage and operational parameters (eg. number of injections, maximum pressure attained in the column) to enable proper maintenance of the UHPLC columns utilized in the system.

g. The recording of instrument diagnostic data, such as pump flow, pressure levels, column and autosampler temperatures, etc.) and environmental parameters (eg. room temperature) are desirable in order to better enable Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) record maintenance and troubleshooting.

Be advised that FDA does not accept documents which contain the use of macros. When submitting documents via email, DO NOT include .exe, .mso, or any other executable file types that could potentially trigger email security protections (i.e. email blocks, quarantine). Document submissions required throughout the award period(s) shall not have macro enabled functionality and any document delivered having that functionality will be deemed delinquent, if not corrected prior to the due date.

Contractor Performance Evaluation(s) In accordance with FAR Subpart 42.15, FDA will complete annual (interim) and final contractor performance evaluations. Annual evaluations will be prepared to coincide with the anniversary date of the contract. Additional interim performance evaluations may be prepared at Contracting Officer discretion, as necessary. Final performance evaluations will be completed upon contract expiration.

FDA will utilize the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) in order to execute annual and final contractor performance evaluations. CPARS is a secure Internet website located at http://www.cpars.csd.disa.mil/cparsmain.htm. FDA will register the contractor in CPARS upon receipt of the name and email address of two (2) individuals who will be responsible for serving as the Contractor’s primary and alternate CPARS contacts. Once FDA registers the contractor in CPARS, the Contractor will receive an automated CPARS email message which contains User IDs and instructions for creating a password.

Once a performance evaluation is issued, the Contractor’s primary and alternate CPARS contact will receive an email instructing them to logon to CPARS in order to review the performance evaluation. The Contractor has 14 days from the date of performance evaluation issuance in which to review the evaluation. If the Contractor is in agreement with the performance evaluation outcome, the evaluation becomes final. Should the Contractor be in disagreement with the performance evaluation outcome, rebuttal comments must be submitted via the CPARS within 14 http://www.cpars.csd.disa.mil/cparsmain.htm days from date the evaluation was issued by the FDA. Any disagreement between the Contracting Officer and the Contractor will be referred to a contracting official one level above the Contracting Officer, whose decision will be final.

Copies of each performance evaluation and contractor responses, if any, will be retained as part of the official contract file and will be used to support future award decisions. Evaluations will also be stored for a 3-year period in the https://www.cpars.gov/ system.

Contractors may obtain CPARS training material and register for on-line training at https://www.cpars.gov/lc.htm . There is no fee for registration or use of the CPARS.

Provide the names of two individuals who will be assigned as the CPARS representatives below:
