## Summary

The University of Strathclyde, located in Glasgow, has completed the procurement process for "Equipment to measure binding kinetics and thermodynamics parameters in a single high-throughput format." This contract falls under the education industry category and was initiated through a limited procurement method without prior publication. The award was formalised on 7th December 2020, with a total contract value of £235,300. The initiative received funding aimed at developing capabilities for understanding binding kinetics between proteins, nucleic acids, and small molecules.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in supplying scientific equipment, particularly those specialising in biosensor technology and high-throughput screening solutions. Companies that have experience in developing sophisticated measurement tools or those with proven capabilities in dynamic chip-based biosensor systems may find this contract particularly advantageous. The funding backing this procurement indicates a robust governmental interest in advancing scientific research in Glasgow, thus creating a conducive environment for related suppliers to engage and grow their business.

## Notice

The Contracting Authority has received funding to support a Glasgow-wide initiative that will enable users to determine the binding kinetics between proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The Contracting Authority has received funding to support a Glasgow-wide initiative that will enable users to determine the binding kinetics between proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules. A Voluntary ex ante transparency (VEAT) notice was dispatched on 04/11/2020 regarding the University's use of the of the negotiated procedure without prior publication. Equipment to be procured must be capable of measuring binding kinetics and thermodynamics parameters in a single high-throughput format. The dynamic chip-based biosensor system identified was used in the application for funding and contains patented technology (EP 2622093, EP 1588755, DE 102007005472) relating to the time-resolved dynamics measurement of biosensor probes.
