TITLE: Mass Spectrometer
Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC), on behalf of Public Health Agency Canada (PHAC), Canadian Science Centre for Human and Animal Health (CSCHAH), intends to negotiate with AB Sciex LP for the provision of a QTRAP 6500 Mass Spectrometer.
DEFINITION OF REQUIREMENT
Public Health Agency Canada (PHAC) has a requirement for a QTRAP 6500 Mass Spectrometer for biological research. The Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics (MSP) Core Facility supports National Microbiology Laboratory (NML) in mass spsectrometry analysis. The MSP provides NML with access to mass spectrometry and proteomics instrumentation, software, methods, training, information, and networking. MSP's key technologies include 2D-LV/MS/MS and MALDITOF MS, which are used to measure biological systems at the protein level. These tools are used to provide services and applications for better prevention, treatment and diagnosis of infectious disease. The QTRAP 6500 and accompanying components will be for providing NML with new diagnostic services, e.g., target quantitiaiton for biomarker verification, validation, and detection. These new services are needed to help fulfill NML mandate for rapid, molecular-based diagnostics of infectious disease and bioterrorism-telated activity.
MINIMUM PERFORMANCE CRITERIA / SPECIFICATIONS
Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that its product meets the following mandatory requirements:
Due to space constraints, require a bench-top triple quadrupole mass spectrometry system that has a footprint no larger than 32 inches by 32 inches (not including a nitrogen generator or computer). The instrument's top panel must be able to support the weight of typical HPLC and nanoLC devices, and the LC must be of the appropriate size (same or smaller footprint and less than 32-inches in height) and spill-proof design. The MS and LC systems must be able to switch between nano-flow (100-1000 nl/min) and micro-flow (1-50 ul/min) easily (plug-and-play) and fast (within minutes). This is required to enable switching between different applications for our various clients at NML that require more sensitivity (nano-flow) or more robustness (micro-flow). As a core lab servicing many clients with many different types of biological samples, we require simple plug-and-play nano-LC chips/cartridges for rapid (
