Notice description

Source text reproduced without an AI summary.

The 10th Contracting Squadron at the United States Air Force Academy, Colorado, has awarded a firm-fixed-price purchase order to AB Sciex, LLC for the procurement of a Liquid Chromatography Replacement system. This procurement consists of the ExionLC AE System and its associated specialized components (including pumps, degassing unit, autosampler, column oven, and transition Sciex OS software licenses). The new system is fully and natively compatible with the existing Sciex QTRAP 5500 Mass Spectrometer system currently utilized in the USAFA Department of Basic Sciences lab, allowing seamless operation without requiring third-party bridging software.
