The Department of Public Safety, Arkansas State Crime Laboratory, has issued a solicitation for an Automated Liquid Handling System intended to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the Toxicology section's analyses on biological specimens. The system is required to possess an 8-channel liquid handling arm for pipetting volumes ranging from 0.5 μL to 100 μL and must include a bar-code reader for automatic identification of carriers, tubes, and plates. It should handle at least three different liquids with non-reactive containers and feature liquid detection capabilities in each channel through capacitance or pressure measurements. Furthermore, the system should support analyses on various biological fluids such as whole blood, urine, and synthetic blood, and incorporate a built-in orbital shaker for both room-temperature and heated incubation shaking. An included vacuum module will facilitate solid-phase extractions. The contract stipulates that installation services for any electrical power source modifications will be managed by the Arkansas State Crime Laboratory. Additionally, the contractor is responsible for supplying a one-year manufacturer's warranty that covers material and workmanship defects, as well as providing preventative maintenance services and training for laboratory personnel. The initial contract term is one year, beginning in April 2025, with an option to renew for up to six additional one-year periods, totaling a potential duration of seven years. The work will be conducted at the Arkansas State Crime Laboratory in Little Rock, Arkansas.
