Results
Direct award
:
Justification for direct award
:
The contract can be provided only by a particular economic operator because of an absence of competition for technical reasons
Other justification
:
AAU needs 252 Nanopore promethION flowcells and reagents for library prep to sequence long fragment DNA from 252 different samples for the purpose of conducting metagenom assembly on complex samples. Oxford Nanopore Technologies have developed a unique technology that is able to sequence individual DNA and RNA molecules without amplification. This positions them as the only company in the world with capabilities to sequence ultra long DNA and RNA molecules while detecting native modifications and do so at scale.
