About this opportunity

The National Institutes of Health, specifically the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), issued a notice of intent on July 9, 2026 to sole-source a purchase order for a Bioruptor Plus Pico Sonication Device from Diagenode LLC, with capability statement responses due by 10:00 a.m. EST on July 24, 2026. The Government cites Diagenode LLC as the only known responsible source capable of meeting requirements under FAR 6.302-1. The Bioruptor Pico is an all-in-one shearing system optimized for processing micro-volumes from 5 microliters to 2 milliliters, simultaneously sonicating 6 to 12 samples for high-throughput laboratory studies. The device features advanced timing control, integrated cooling systems for precise temperature regulation, and compatibility with DNA, RNA, chromatin, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues, and plant samples. Performance has been validated through peer-reviewed publications. Small businesses—including 8(a) firms, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, HUBZone small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, and women-owned small businesses—may submit written capability statements demonstrating ability to perform the requirement via email to Stacie.anderson@nih.gov. An award is anticipated approximately ten days after the notice date unless the Government determines another organization possesses the required capability. This notice does not constitute a request for competitive quotes and does not obligate the Government to compete the award.

Notice text

  • The Bioruptor® Pico sonication device is uniquely positioned to meet the Government’s needs.
