About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health published a Special Notice to announce its intent to sole source the award of a firm-fixed-price purchase order to Government Scientific Source, Inc. The notice seeks to procure reagents required for a 10X Genomics Chromium platform to study gene expression in brain tissue and support research into the mechanisms of hibernation. Interested parties may submit capability statements by January 23, 2024 demonstrating their ability to supply the proprietary reagents otherwise solely available from 10X Genomics through Government Scientific Source.
The purpose of the Special Notice is to acquire consumables including a 48-reaction single cell kit and training kit for single cell sequencing of brain tissue as part of research studying hibernation in mammals. The notice instructs interested contractors to provide pricing, delivery, and business information in their responses by January 23, 2024, as the award is anticipated to be issued by January 28, 2024. Only Government Scientific Source is eligible to participate as the sole distributor of the proprietary reagents required for the 10X Genomics platform. The acquisition will enable generation of a single cell atlas of the hibernating ground squirrel brain to further understanding of hibernation and its potential applications.
Notice text
The purpose of this requirement is to purchase reagents required to study gene expression in brain tissue. The contractor shall provide NIH the consumable to generate the data for this research project. The contractor shall also provide any necessary documentation and training materials it has developed. Training material may be modified to suit the needs of NIH.
The 10X Genomics platform allows performing cutting edge cell or nuclei capturing and barcoding for high throughput RNA-sequencing. To run an experiment on this platform we require the appropriate consumables to perform this experiment. The reagents used are proprietary and there is no other company than 10X Genomics available to provide the required reagents. Government Scientific Source is the distribution partner for these items. The products are copyrighted and commercial items and only available from 10X Genomics via Government Scientific Source.
The consumables are a valuable resource that is critical for NIH staff. No other product on the market offers compatibility with the 10X Genomics Chromium X platform.
