Provision of Reagents for Helicobacter Pylori Testing

Public Health England (PHE) has a requirement for the supply of kits for H.Pylori testing. This requirement will cover the Colindale site to begin with however PHE reserves the right to expand the locations if other laboratories develop a need. It is PHE's intention to take advantage of the equipment currently located within the laboratory therefore the proposed solution must be suitable to run on one of the following platforms: • Rotor-Gene Q (Qiagen) • TaqMan 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems) • QuantStudio 5 (Applied Biosystems) • Viia7 (Applied Biosystems) PHE is expecting to award a 2 + 1 + 1 contract for this requirement.
