About

The Agency is seeking a supplier for a Cell Sorter to replace its Aria Cell Sorter, including the purchase and ongoing maintenance of the instrument plus any bespoke consumables and auxiliary equipment if applicable. The cell sorter will support projects such as Cancer Genomics, CAR-T cells, nanobody production, immune cell expansion, stem cell isolations and microbiome strain isolations, and must be capable of isolating specific cell populations (for example transfected cells or cells with a specific phenotype), enabling clonal expansion of cells and providing pre-isolated cells for single-cell sequencing pipelines when required.
