The United States Department Of Naval Medical Research Center (NMRC) intends to make a sole source award to Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN. for the production of lightcycler Uracil - DNA Glycosylase. The development process included extensive testing of various reagent components to produce the best combination. The LightCycler faststart UNG produced by Roche is one of those components. Switching to UNG from another vendor would invalidate all previous optimization and evaluation efforts this would result in down time for an ongoing research effort.
