- Description
- The Army Contracting Agency, Northern Region; Dugway Proving Ground, Utah (hereinafter refered to as the Government) is requesting quotations (W911S6-08-T-0021), for one (1) each Compact,ORTHO-TOF, Mass Spectroscopy System for Bio-Analysis, MALDI-IM-OTOMFS, to consist of the following specifications: Ion mobility drift times (less than 3 ms) through 3 torr Helium for 30,000 m/z proteins allow MALDI laser pulse rates of 300 hz or more, IM resolution of masses ranging from 23 up to 30,000 can be simultaneously acquired in less than 3 ms, Intergration of typical spectrum from multiple laser irradiations is less than 60 seconds for 1 pmole angiotensin test c60 calibrant: IM resolution of 30 (drift time divided by FWHM peak width) and m/z resolut ion of 2,500 can be achieved for c60 calibrant: Sensitivity of at least (10) ten femtomole loadings for angiotensin I and II are routine: The capability ot have multiple laser irradiations of the volume between the MALDI sample anf the enyrance to the IM cell is designed into the MALDI ion source region: The MALDI ion source region is flexible and can accommodate a variety of optional xy stages which can be substituted for the aerosol interface: Irradiated sample area smaller than 50 x 100 microns: T he OTOFMS and vacuum housing is designed so that the region between the orthogonal extraction plates of the TOF can be irradiated with an optional VUV excimer laser for on demand photofragmentation of Ion Mobility selected peptides for structural analysi s: The ultimate vacuum in the OTOFMS of less than 10-7 torr is maintained by a 500 L/sec turbomolecular pump and the pressure in the OTOFMS region must not exceed 4 x 10-6 torr during operation with He. Funding for this requirement is not cu rrently abailable. This requirement is for PROCESS TO POINT OF AWARD ONLY. Sole Source: This is a notice of intent to negotiate on a sole source basis with Ionwerks, 3401 Louisiana, Suite 355, Houston, Tx., 77022. This is for one(1) each mode l MALDI-IM-OTOFMS, Ortho-Tof mass spectroscopy system for bio-mass analysis. Pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304( C ) (1) AND Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1, only one responsible source, supplies, services and/or equipment are available from only one resp onsible source and no other type of supplies, services and/or equipment will satisfy agency requirements.
