Title: Sebia reagents, quality control and supplies that are compatible with the Sebia Hydrasys 2 electrophoresis instruments.� 2. Background Information: The Department of Laboratory medicine provides state-of �the-art laboratory testing in support of Clinical Center patient care and serves as a center of excellence in research and training in laboratory medicine.� Clinical testing in the Special Chemistry service is critical for monitoring disease states as well as screening for acceptance into NIH research protocols. 3. Purpose or Objective: The Department of Laboratory Medicine has a need for Sebia reagents, quality control and supplies that are compatible with the Sebia Hydrasys 2 electrophoresis instruments used in the Department of Laboratory Medicine.� Several Clinical Center protocols require testing performed with these reagents. Sebia Hydrasys B1/B2 reagent kits are used for the separation and quantitation of proteins in human serum and urine on agarose gels, and provide enhanced resolution and sensitivity for monoclonal band detection.� The Sebia Hydrasys IF reagent kits are designed for detection and identification of monoclonal proteins by immunofixation electrophoresis.� The protein detection and identification provided by the Sebia B1/B2 and IF kits are necessary for monitoring patients with B cell malignancies such as Multiple Myeloma and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, who participate in Clinical Center treatment protocols. The Hydrasys Isofocusing reagent kits are designed for qualitative detection and identification of oligoclonal bands in the electrophoretic patterns of Cerebral Spinal Fluid.� These specific reagent kits are indicated for monitoring diseases of the central nervous system in Clinical Center patients. The Sebia reagents kits are the only reagents compatible with the Sebia Hydrasys 2 analyzers that are in use in the Department of Laboratory Medicine.� No other vendor reagents or supplies can be used with the Hydrasys 2 system. 4. Period of Performance: One BASE (1) year beginning on or around 3/15/2020 with four (4) additional option periods of one (1) year each.
