This is a Sources Sought notice issued by the USDA Agricultural Research Service for market research purposes and does not constitute a solicitation for proposals or requests for quotations. The notice seeks to identify potential sources capable of providing reagent kits designed for single cell transcriptional and immune profiling across 32 different tissue sample types. These reagent kits must support partitioning of single cell suspensions into thousands or millions of uniquely barcoded Gel Beads-in-Emulsion (GEMs), be compatible with low to high throughput workflows including 96-well plates, and feature high cell capture efficiency of up to 60%. The kits should also be compatible with the existing Chromium Controller to enable over 80,000 parallel micro-reactions and include reagents, unique dual index oligonucleotides, and at least four microfluidic chips capable of handling a diverse range of eukaryotic cells. Additionally, the reagent kits should support a variety of applications including tagging single cells, nuclei, guide RNA, cell surface proteins labeled with antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates, and CRISPR transduced cells, while providing free, unlimited access to bioinformatics analysis and visualization software. The government emphasizes that this effort is strictly for gathering information to aid in acquisition planning and determining appropriate procurement methods. Responses are voluntary, and no awards will be made based on the information received, nor will respondents be compensated for costs related to submission. Small businesses with relevant capabilities are encouraged to submit detailed capability statements including appropriate certifications and contact information by the specified deadline. Proprietary, classified, confidential, or sensitive information should not be included in responses, and all submissions should be complete and informative enough to assess qualifications. Responses are due by August 2, 2023, and must be emailed directly to the designated point of contact. Pricing information is not to be included in any responses, and all expenses for responding are the responsibility of the respondent.
