Tender description
Equipment provides all the scanning functions that have been lost due to relocation of predecessor systems, plus the ability to multiplex more than two antibodies simultaneously and scan microscope slides, and also perform analyses in the visual fluorescence spectrum in addition to near infra-red. Lot 1: The Li-Cor 3350-STA Odyssey® M Imaging System will be widely used in the CVS by many researchers for a multitude of different functions. Also with the relocation of instruments that were being used by researchers in the CVS to the IRR there is considerable downtime for our researchers who currently have to move across the campus to access these instruments. Some assays are time critical and potentially results may now be affected due to an enforced time delay in moving from one side of the campus to the other. The Odyssey M provides all the scanning functions that have been lost due to relocation of predecessor systems, plus the ability to multiplex more than two antibodies simultaneously and scan microscope slides, and also perform analyses in the visual fluorescence spectrum in addition to near infra-red - I believe this is unique to this piece of equipment.
