RFQ Human Cytokine/Chemokine/Growth Factor Panel A

Background
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is seeking to procure biological laboratory supplies to assist in analyzing proteins in blood samples. This initiative aims to explore biomarkers related to mood disorders and the effects of novel anti-depressants, thereby supporting research in mental health.

Work Details
The contract requires the delivery of the following items:
- Four (4) Human Cytokine/Chemokine/Growth Factor Panel A 48 Plex Immunoassay Kits

The 48-plex cytokine immunoassay kits must measure the following analytes:
- sCD40L
- EGF
- Eotaxin
- FGF-2
- Flt-3 ligand
- Fractalkine
- G-CSF
- GM-CSF
- GROα
- IFNα2
- IFNγ
- IL-1α
