Flow Cytometry Instrumentation			July 1, 2001
This notice is posted to serve as a public notice and request for
bids for purchase of flow cytometry instrumention for the Purdue
University Cytometry Laboratories (PUCL), Purdue University,
West Lafayette, Indiana, USA.

Requirements:
PUCL will be replacing current flow cytometry instrumentation. We
require high quality flow cytometry instrumention with capacity for
both sorting and analysis of multicolor specimens. Issues that will
impact our purchase decision include (but not limited to) sorting
capability (including  sort speed, accuracy, capabilities), analytical
capability (including sensitivity, color selection, and resolution),
software (including capability, user interface and speed), support
and maintenance over a 5 year period. The ability to perform kinetic
assays,  run large numbers of samples quickly, utilize an overall
intelligent networked data management solution, are important
considerations. Purchase decisions will be based on a combination
of factors including but not limited to those listed above. The overall
decision will be based on what we believe best serves the scientific
needs of the PUCL faciltiy and the Purdue community. Further
information about PUCL may be obtained from our website at
http://www.cyto.purdue.edu

While capabilities may reside in a single instrument, packages
which satisfy the overall needs of our facility and will satisfy our
scientific and management needs will be given equal consideration.

Companies interested in supplying such instrumentation should
provide confidential package quotations to the person listed below
by July 31, 2001 to:

Professor J. Paul Robinson
Purdue University Cytometry Laboratories
1515 Hansen Hall
Purdue University
West Lafayette, IN 47907  USA
