The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), Research Triangle Park, NC intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Affymetrix Inc., Santa Clara, CA 95051, pursuant to 41 U.S.C.253(c)(1)--Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This purchase is for the following items: 1) #901232-(2 EA)-Kit, Rat Genome 203.20 Array & kit 10 Reaction; 2) #901233-(5 EA)-Kit, Rat Genome 230.2.0 Array & Kit Reaction; 3) #900720-(6 EA)- RGT, Kit, HYB Wash Stain 30 RXN. These arrays are for the TBBPA TGMX Studies in the National Toxicology Program, (NTP). The study criteria calls for a platform that provides a) comprehensive coverage of the known rat transcriptome using multiple probes per transcript;
b) supporting software for reading and data analysis; c) availability of compatible hardware and software for Affymetrix arrays at the NIEHS Microarray core. The Affymetrix microarray platform is the best platform to examine TBBPA-induced gene transcript changes in the liver and uterus.
