Acquisition of a Holotomographic 3D-Microscope System, Tomocube HT-2H

II.1.2) Main CPV code

38510000 Microscopes

II.1.3) Type of contract

Supplies

II.1.4) Short description:

Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen.

The purchase is financed by a grant from the Carlsberg Foundation to Prof. Michael Kühl, Department of Marine Biology, Department of Biology

II.1.6) Information about lots

This contract is divided into lots: no

II.1.7) Total value of the procurement (excluding VAT)

Value excluding VAT: 750 000.00 DKK

II.2) Description

II.2.3) Place of performance

NUTS code: DK01 Hovedstaden

II.2.4) Description of the procurement:

The procurement involves the establishement of an advanced digital holotomographic microscope that enables non-invasive 3D imaging of refractive index in living samples at high spatial resolution and under controlled temperature and oxygen conditions, in combination with 3D imaging of fluorescent markers in the samples (followed by 3D reconstruction).

The system will be used in basic research and will e.g. be used to map the optical properties of living cells (microalgae, cyanobacteria), and the spatial structure of cell organells (chloroplasts, mitochondria) in large unicellular protists, algae and bacteria.

II.2.11) Information about options

Options: no

II.2.13) Information about European Union funds

The procurement is related to a project and/or programme financed by European Union funds: no

Section IV: Procedure

IV.1) Description

IV.1.1) Type of procedure

Negotiated procedure without prior publication

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator for the following reason:
- absence of competition for technical reasons

Explanation:

TomoCube HT-2H is the only digital holotomografic microscope system on the market that combines 3D imaging of refractive index with both brightfield and fluorescence imaging of samples over a large, freely defined area that is not locked to a specific well-plate format. The system is also the only complete system on the market that has in-built combined imaging of 3D refractive index with 3D reconstruction of cell structures imaged as z-stacks of fluorescence following by 3D reconstruction.

The system also enables, as the only on the market, flexible use of filter combinations and external light sources for the fluorescence imaging in combination with the holotomographic imaging of refractive index.

The scientific use of the system requires the above-mentioned flexibility and ability to work with many different types of samples and with different configurations in terms of fluorescence channels, and type of sample containers.
