Reagents

The NASA GeneLab project requires various reagents for RNA-sequencing from tissues from spaceflight missions. The reagents should be capable of generating sequencing libraries, sequencing clusters, and sequencing data, and must be compatible with specific Illumina systems. The reagents are to be delivered to the NASA Ames Research Center within 15 days after the award of the contract, with a shipping schedule determined by GeneLab.

List of Products and Services:

1. Five reagents for generating sequencing libraries depleted of ribosomal RNA fraction from 480 RNA samples, compatible with the Illumina NovaSeq 6000.
2. Four 8 pack reagents for generating 4 million sequencing clusters from a single sequencing library pool, generating 300 cycles of sequencing data from each cluster, compatible with the Illumina iSeq 100 system.
3. Seven reagents for generating 8-10 billion sequencing clusters from a single sequencing library pool, generating 300 cycles of sequencing data from each cluster, compatible with the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 system.
4. Four reagents for generating 8-10 billion sequencing clusters from a single sequencing library pool, generating 200 cycles of sequencing data from each cluster, compatible with the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 system.
5. Delivery of reagents to NASA Ames Research Center.
6. Partial deliveries are allowed.
