Tumor cells, immune cells, and irradiated tissues release large quantities of biologically active nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs). The Translational Nanobiology Section within the Laboratory of Pathology (LP) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Cancer Institute (NCI), Center for Cancer Research (CCR), is developing new ways to investigate these EVs as biological agents, biomarkers, and therapeutic targets. The section uses an Oxford Nanoimaging (ONI) Nanoimager super-resolution microscope to provide high quality singlemolecule resolution imaging for nanoparticle analysis as part of the section’s EV production and analysis pipeline. Preventive maintenance services are required to ensure its highest peak performance, as this instrument is being used for developing guidelines for best practices in this area of research, and ultimately for establishing a foundation for next-generation EV-based personalized cancer treatment and monitoring. This acquisition is to acquire preventive maintenance services for a super resolution microscope system, Oxford Nanoimaging (ONI) Nanoimager, at the Laboratory of Pathology. Oxford Nanoimaging Inc (ONI) is the original manufacturer and sole provider of authorized maintenance services for the ONI Nanoimager super-resolution microscope. Due to the sensitive nature of the superresolution microscope, it can only be repaired by qualified, OEM-trained technicians. This specialized training is only accessible to Oxford Nanoimaging technicians. Furthermore, only Oxford Nanoimaging can provide access to genuine, proprietary OEM spare parts which are required to maintain this superresolution microscope. The OEM does not license 3rd party technicians, and spare or replacement parts for this instrument can only be obtained from the original manufacturer. Thus, no other vendor has trained personnel to work with this complex system or access to any potential required parts that might need replacing over time. Lastly, the operating system and software of this super-resolution microscope are proprietary and can only be serviced by Oxford Nanoimaging. All updates and patches are solely available through the OEM This makes Oxford Nanoimaging the only known source for this requirement and the only provider that can meet the Government’s needs at this time.
