Line Item 0001: Small Footprint Benchtop Flow Cytometer Hardware and Software

SPECIFICATIONS For the Procurement of an Ozone Calibrator for an Inter-Comparison

I. BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The Material Measurement Laboratory’s Biomaterials Group portfolio includes efforts to develop measurements and standards to support advanced cell and gene therapy products and regenerative medicine applications. The Group’s cell characterization project involves development of methods and measurement assurance tools to support the quantification of mammalian cell number and assessment of cell viability and health metrics. A compact, benchtop flow cytometer is needed to complement other existing measurement capabilities in the Group. Flow cytometry is a routinely applied cell quantification technique that uses light scattering and fluorescence emission along with fluorescent dye-based assay kits to obtain quantitative data at the single-cell level. These assays may be commercially available from multiple sources or developed in-house at NIST. Due to laboratory space limitations, a compact, user-friendly flow cytometer for cell quantification and cell health analysis is needed.
