- Description :
- The University of Alberta is providing an Advanced Contract Award Notice to contract with Thermo Fisher Scientific to acquire two refurbished Mass Spectrometry instruments that are not available from alternate manufacturers.This same instrumentation was acquired previously via an open bidding process resulting in only one Proposal, Ref # RFP 2022-0163. Two more of these instruments were acquired with no challenges to the Sole Source justification, Ref # ACAN 2023-0082. These processes have verified that this is indeed a sole source. Technical Justification of sole sourceThe detailed structural information needed for this project will necessitate MS2, MS3, and MSN fragmentation datasets to be acquired at over 240,000 at 200m/z.● The new instruments will need to be able to measure 16-plex TMT labeling samples to facilitate high sensitivity single cell proteomics.● To conduct this research, the HRMS must be capable of resolving mass shifts from complex mixtures of co-eluting isotopomers of carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Isotopomers must be identified by exactmass of the parent ion.● It is our understanding that they are the only vendor that can supply systems that are compatible with our existing instrumentation and meet our mandatory requirements (e.g. both to perform singlecell proteomics as well as deep proteome-wide analysis using micrograms of material on the same instrument, which are vital to perform our specific research. Mandatory equipment specifications include, howe...
