This is a single source posting notification; there are no solicitation documents for download. Note this posting is not a Request for Bid (RFB) or Request for Proposal (RFP).
The Minnesota Department of Health intends to enter an agreement with Qiagen for the purchase of reagents for the NBS lab’s assay for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID), Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), and to validate a new addition to the Newborn Screening testing panel Congenital Cytomegalovirus (CMV).
This has been deemed a single source, as purification and elution solutions are only available from Qiagen. These are the only reagents that work with the currently validated CF method and SMA and SCID assays and are needed to validate CMV assay. Different reagents would require a new method validation and would not be compatible with all three assays which have different requirements for the DNA extraction.
If there are any concerns regarding this single source o pportunity, contact Seth Rasmussen at seth.rasmussen@state.mn.us by May 31, 2023, at 3:00 PM Central Time. Include the reference number and title of the posting in the subject line.
