Lot 1 Enzymes

£3,900,000

Ongoing supply of enzymes. Enzymes should be tested for exonuclease and endonuclease activity. All enzymes should be provided with the manufacturer's definition of a "unit" of enzyme e.g. "one U of enzyme is defined as the amount of enzyme required to digest xµg of DNA at 37°C in xx minutes in a total reaction volume of xxµl"

Delivery: United Kingdom

Lot 2 Nucleotides

£3,900,000

dNTPs and NTPs will be required for use in multiple PCR applications; in vitro transcription; mRNA/saRNA synthesis and cloning. dNTPs and NTPs should be possible of being supplied in sodium or tris salt form and confirmed as RNase, DNase and protease free. The ability to supply alternative salt forms, such as lithium, would be advantageous. These dNTPs and N...

Lot 6 Competent Cells

£3,900,000

CPI would require competent cells to be supplied for use in cloning/sub-cloning, protein expression and gDNA/cDNA library production.

Delivery: United Kingdom

Lot 7 RNA & DNA

£3,900,000

CPI require the supply of RNA and DNA purification kits. RNA/DNA purification kits can be either gravity flow, vacuum assisted or spin columns and should cover small scale through to large scale. Multiple types of PCR kits would be required for use in development activities at CPI also, such as RT-PCR and RT-qPCR kits.

Delivery: United Kingdom

Lot 8 Media

£3,900,000

CPI require the supply of cell culture media to assist with the testing of therapeutic nucleic acids (DNA/RNA). Cell culture media and feeds are required, as either pre-made sterile solutions or as a powder.

Delivery: United Kingdom

Lot 9 CleanCap

£3,900,000

CPI require supply of the RNA co-translational capping agent, cleancap. The supplier must be able to supply various types of therapeutically relevant cleancap analogues, such as AU and AG (in addition to the methylated form).
