Procurement of SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Assay for UK Biobank COVID-19 Seroprevalence Study
Awarded 04 Jun 2020
About
UK Biobank Ltd awarded a contract to The Chancellor Masters and Scholars of the University of Oxford for the procurement of an assay to measure severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies in human blood samples.
The assay supports a UK Biobank study of COVID-19 seroprevalence involving up to 20,000 participants and their adult children and grandchildren, funded by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).
The study aims to collect blood samples monthly for an initial six-month period to assess prior infection across different locations and age groups in the UK.
The contract, valued at £1,560,000, was awarded to urgently secure a supplier to enable study design, particularly the method of blood collection, and to start the study without delay.
The DHSC remunerates the supplier directly, while UK Biobank entered into the contract.
