Description

1. - Statement of Requirements

The Unversity of Ottawa is pleased to invite qualified proponents to submit a proposal for proponents to submit for a Isothermal Titration Calorimeter (ITC).

General Description:

The instrument should carry out biomolecular isothermal titration calorimetry experiments. Both binding- and catalysis-based measurements will be carried out. The instrument must therefore support both ‘traditional’ and kinetic ITC.

A separate document with clear answers to all statements in Appendix A and B is desirable.

Specifications listed in Appendix A – Technical Specifications Compliance Form of this RFP are the mandatory minimum requirements for the Isothermal Titration Calorimeter (ITC).

1. 1. Should any equipment included in a proposal be superseded by a newer model during the period between the award of contract and the delivery date, the successful Proponent will be required to inform the University of Ottawa of the new specifications, the newer model pricing will remain the same as what was offered in the RFP. At its sole discretion, the University of Ottawa may opt to make changes from the list of equipment by altering, adding, or deducting some equipment.
