Notice Information

Notice Title

project_5463 - BIOT Capillary Cell Counter

Notice Description

The agency is looking for a non-image-based Cell Counter with wide size profile that can accommodate for large stem cells and fibroblasts, live/dead cell discrimination and fast processing without requirement for high cell numbers; more accuracy than manual counting or Trypan Blue-image based counting. At present we have PS15,000 funds approved (including delivery, installation and 20% VAT). We would however, encourage suppliers biding to quote for option(s) that can meet the essential requirements but also the desirables should we be able to seek further funding subject to tender responses. Additional information: Early engagement was carried out on Contracts Finder for 2 weeks. https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5814d69-9990-4680-81ea-9ffdf7f8ed27
