Description

Portland State University's Department of Psychology intends to purchase an automated Ella Immunoassay System from Bio-Techne Sales Corporation. This purchase is necessary because Bio-Techne holds the intellectual property for the Ella machine, making them the sole source for this equipment. The system is required to conduct biological assays on dried blood spots collected from study participants, supporting the department's research program. The Ella machine is noted for being user-friendly, competitively priced, and efficient in processing samples, which is expected to save on labor costs.
