description

APHA requires the supply, delivery and installation of an imaging platform for use within the Virology Department . The contractor will also be required to deliver training to three (3) users.

The Equipment will meet the following requirements:-

External Dimensions

  • The imaging platform shall have a depth no greater than 600 mm, a height no greater than 900 mm and a width no greater than 600 mm.

General:

-Be designed specifically for viewing, analysing and documenting agarose, protein and western blotting gels.
-Be compatible with general 240v UK electricity supply. Supplier must specify if their equipment will be delivered with a 13amp UK 3 pin plug.
-It needs to be equipped with:
  • i.high resolution e.g. cooled charge-coupled display (CCD) camera with high sensitivity and reduced background noise for Chemiluminescence imaging
  • ii.UV and/or LED based imagin platform for visualising dyes like SYBR Safe and Gel Red during nucleic acid detection (PCR)
  • iii.white light imaging or equivalent (not essential) to capture colorimetric stained protein gels (Coomassie blue/silver stain)
  • iv.Analysis software that can run on Windows 7 and 10 for quantifying the signal intensities.
  • The potential to upgrade the platform to analyse multiple fluorescence probe-labelled images may be a future consideration. This option is desirable but not essential and will NOT be evaluated, therefore should be priced separately, if applicable.
