Lot Information

Lot 1

The University has a requirement to purchase an instrument that features the latest innovation for characterising biomolecular binding affinities. The University has published this VEAT notice and intends to award a contract to NanoTemper Technologies GmbH following the expiry of 10 days from the date of publication of this notice.

Procurement Information

Specific features of the system include the * Measurements are performed in solution (i.e. no immobilisation is required) * Capability to quantify interactions in complex solutions (crude extract, serum) * Means to determine binding constant over a wide range (5 nM - high millimolar) as well as stoichiometry and thermodynamic parameters * Power to work at low nanomolar concentrations * Advantage of small sample volumes (20 microliter) coupled with the capacity to run samples in high-throughput mode using standard 384 well-plate * Used detection modalities based on two techniques: Spectral shift detection and Temperature-Related Intensity Change (TRIC) * Microfluidics-free * Mass independent measurement i.e., the measurable molecular weight range is from 101-107 Da * Measure up to 384 datapoints per run * Advantage of small sample volumes (20 microliter) coupled with the capacity to run samples in high-throughput mode using standard SBS 384 well-plate format
