New Requirement - FFF unit with MALS/RI detectors

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is seeking to acquire a Field-flow fractionation Multi-Angle Light Scattering (FFF-MALS) system, which includes Multi-Angle Light Scattering and Refractive Index detectors. This system is intended to enhance the FDA's analytical capabilities, likely for advanced particle characterization and molecular analysis applications. The contract is categorized under NAICS code 334516, which relates to analytical laboratory instrument manufacturing, indicating the specialized nature of the equipment required. This procurement has been posted as a forecast, meaning it is a projected requirement rather than an active solicitation, and specific details such as contracting officer information and exact location for performance have not yet been finalized. The FDA's point of contact for the acquisition process is identified as the OC Acquisition Liaison, reachable via email, to assist potential vendors or interested parties with information. The opportunity reflects the FDA’s ongoing efforts to upgrade its scientific instrumentation to support regulatory science and public health missions.
