    Laboratorie- og analyseutstyr

    Åbo Akademi needs two analytical flow cytometry systems for a maximum total value of 408,360 EUR. The systems will replace existing equipment and must meet or exceed the analytical performance and configuration of the current four-laser, seventeen-fluorescence detection channel systems, while offering enhanced reliability, operational stability, and long-term serviceability. The procurement includes all necessary hardware, software licenses, accessories, installation, user training, warranty, and comprehensive service and maintenance support. The systems will be used for advanced multi-parameter single-cell analysis, including multicolor cellular phenotyping, functional cellular assays, and immunological and cell biology applications, and must combine high analytical sensitivity and resolution with operational simplicity and an intuitive software interface. The award criteria are Technical specificities (60%), which includes compliance with minimum requirements, number of detection channels above the minimum, optical performance and flexibility, and autosampler functionality.

    About the bid

      The Contracting Authority invites tenders for the supply, delivery, installation, commissioning, validation, and initial technical support of two (2) analytical flow cytometry systems to support research laboratory activities. The proposed system(s) will replace the currently installed flow cytometers, which are equipped with four (4) lasers and seventeen (17) fluorescence detection channels. The new equipment is expected to meet or exceed the analytical performance and configuration of the existing system, while ensuring enhanced reliability, operational stability, and long-term serviceability. The instruments will be used for advanced multi-parameter single-cell analysis and must be capable of addressing both current research needs and foreseeable future developments. The objective of this procurement is to acquire robust, high-performance analytical flow cytometry system(s), including all required hardware, software licenses, accessories, installation, user training, warranty coverage, and comprehensive service and maintenance support. The primary applications conducted by the research groups include, but are not limited to, multicolor cellular phenotyping, functional cellular assays, release assays, and related immunological and cell biology applications. The systems will be operated by experienced flow cytometry specialists as well as by a broad user community with varying levels of prior expertise. Accordingly, the instruments must combine high analytical sensitivity and resolution with operational simplicity, intuitive software interface, and streamlined assay setup to ensure accessibility, reproducibility, and efficient workflow management.
