II.1.1) Title:

Acquisition of an EMBRYO Injection Microscope

II.1.2) Main CPV code

38510000 Microscopes

II.1.3) Type of contract

Supplies

II.1.4) Short description:

ICMM aims to produce research with high international impact focusing on the functional cell, its genetic components and molecular cellular mechanisms in a medical context. The Messerschmidt Lab is focussed on the epigenetic and transcriptional dynamics in mammalian embryos during oocyte-to-embryo transition and beyond. We study transcription factors and epigenetic modifiers and their roles in epigenetic programming, re-programming and stability at early developmental stages.

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: 850 000.00 DKK

II.2) Description

II.2.3) Place of performance

NUTS code: DK01 Hovedstaden

II.2.4) Description of the procurement:

For the setting up of our new laboratory we require a microinjection microscope setup to conduct injections and manipulations of mammalian germ cells and preimplantation embryos. This system enables us to perform RNA, DNA, protein injections into oocytes and embryos, as well as the manipulation, e.g. blastomere removal or separation.

II.2.5) Award criteria

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:

Unique features specifically required for targeted application of embryo manipulation:

• Infinity port: Easy integration of third party products without elongated light path

• 20nm focus drive precision with closed-loop design

• Large standard focus travel range of 12mm crucial for embryo manipulation

• Optically corrected for 19mm field of view on all side ports and bottom port

• Contrast methods: The microscope is capable for use with brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast, integrated phase contrast, differential interference contrast (DIC), integrated modulation contrast, polarization and fluorescence methods, crucial to embryo viewing, organelle identification (i.e. pronuclei) and manipulation.

• Modular Design: The microscope is a fully modular system, allowing use with a full range of condensers, stages, objectives, illumination sources. This is crucial to future adaptation of the equipment to more advanced manipulation and imaging techniques.

• Variable function keys with functions fully adaptable to individual customers' needs and demands. 7 function keys on the stand and additional 4 variable function keys on the SmartMove. All functions are pre-programmed related to the given configuration. Required feature for smooth transition between settings during complex manipulation steps.

• Integrated Modulation Contrast (IMC): Unique contrast enhancing method for unstained and live specimen without the need for special objectives. Integrated Phase Contrast (IPH): Phase contrast method for enhancing contrast in unstained and live specimen without the need for special objectives. Essential to view and manipulate mammalian embryos and germ cells.

For DMi8:

- Our patent DE102004061901B4 and the related US7372625B2 refer to the vibration-free

rotating fluorescence turret with fluorescence cubes.

- Our patents DE102005023850B4 and the related US8228600B2 cover the complete beam

path of the inverted microscope with contrast modulating elements.

- Our patents DE102012210905B4 and JP3198221 refer to the illumination device with

dynamic control of the illumination intensity from weak to strong illumination.

- Our Patents DE102014110575B4 and JP6805126 concern the T-house which allow for

coupling of several light sources for different illumination methods to the rear coupling

interfaces.

- Our patents DE102014116648B4 and CN106687849B cover the microscope housing

providing openings below the stage which allow two-side access, from left and right side as

well, to the incident light fluorescence turret.
