Multiplexed Transcription Factor Profiling of the ToxCast Library

Added: Jul 21, 2011 12:37 pm Modified: Jul 21, 2011 12:49 pmTrack Changes The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has a requirement for contractor supplied laboratory testing and analysis services in support of the Office of Research and Development (ORD), National Computational Center for Toxicology (NCCT), Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The contractor will use technologies aimed at profiling, in a multiplexed fashion, transcription factor activity in combination with varying cell lines and cell culture conditions, when performing these services. These services will allow for diversity within these families. Each assay, being either a mono- or co-culture system, will address multiple transcriptional factor targets within a single well.

EPA anticipates the award of a five year Task Order (ID/IQ) contract. NAICS Code 541711 applies with a small business size standard of 500 employees. This is a total small business set aside. A draft copy of the Statement of Work is posted on website: http://www.epa.gov/oam/rtp_cmd/. A copy of the Request for Proposal (RFP) with SOW will be posted on or about the date the RFP is issued.
