The University of Portsmouth is looking for an automated library synthesis system to support current and future research projects in the School of Medicine, Pharmacy and Biomedical Science.
The equipment will be used in research and teaching across the school in areas such as vaccine development, gene therapy, lipid nanoparticle research, drug formulation screening and process optimisation for manufacturing.
We are looking to purchase an automated microfluidic platform designed for high-throughput screening and optimisation of nanoparticle formulations.
It should enable users to run large numbers of experiments within a single workflow while tightly controlling formulation and process parameters, using minimal reagent volumes and incorporating automated cleaning to avoid cross-contamination.
The system should combine programmable pumping, robotic liquid handling, interchangeable microfluidic mixing devices and integrated software for experimental design and data capture.
It should offer an efficient and scalable approach to rapid formulation screening and the transfer of optimised conditions to downstream process development.
The seller is expected to supply, deliver, install the equipment and provide training to key users.
We are seeking a five-year service plan to be included in the purchase.
The seller must meet the mandatory essential criteria outline in the specification.
