Next-Generation Benchtop Sequencer
Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada Brandon Research Centre in
Brandon, MB has a requirement for the supply and delivery of one
(1) Next-Generation Benchtop Sequencer to Brandon, MB, on or
before March 31, 2014.
Background:
The requested sequencer with next-generation sequencing (NGS)
technologies will be used for the six-row and hulless barley
breeding program as well as the crop production pathology
program at the Brandon Research Centre (BRC). Currently, there
is no sequencer available at BRC to support ongoing molecular
genetic research. An onsite sequencer will provide improved
capacity and productivity for the barley breeding and pathology
programs at BRC. In addition, the breeding programs relocating
to Brandon from the Cereal Research Centre in Winnipeg will
share this equipment. The purchase of a sequencer that provides
NGS technology is essential to support unprecedented progress in
research.
This PWGSC office provides procurement services to the public in
English.
Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any
procurement.
Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
