Lipid analytics (lipidomics) and lipid analysis
This tender has been awarded
Awarded to Lipodom Kutató Fejlesztő és Tanácsadó Kft.; Debreceni Egyetem — €23,436,018
About This Opportunity
TranslatedThis tender concerns comprehensive lipid analysis and lipidomics on 155 animal tissue samples. The service provider is required to perform analysis in three distinct analytical "packages" for all samples, covering all specified parameters. Both the bid and the final results must include all biological parameters defined by the contracting authority. Samples will be delivered in three batches throughout the contract period, contingent on experimental progress. The delivery location is specified as 7400 Kaposvár, Guba Sándor u. 40. The first two batches will consist of 50 frozen biological samples each, with the remaining 55 samples delivered in the third batch, totaling 155 samples. The earliest possible date for the first sample delivery is the 10th calendar day following contract signing. The latest date for the third and final sample delivery is November 3, 2025. The contracting authority will provide 10 calendar days' written notice for each sample delivery date. Results are to be delivered within 84 calendar days of sample receipt, with early completion accepted for partial deliveries. The bid price must encompass the analytical work, per-sample results, electronic delivery of findings, and sample disposal. The scope of work includes initial extraction of total lipid content from frozen animal tissue samples (maximum 1g), followed by two main analytical stages. Stage 1 requires the quantitative (targeted) determination of specific lipid fractions: Sphingosine, Sphinganine, Sphingosine-1-phosphate, Sphinganine-1-phosphate, Free Ceramide, and Free Cholesterol for each biological sample. Stage 2 involves lipidomic (non-targeted) analysis with quantitative determination for all detectable molecular forms within the following lipid fractions: Phosphatidic acid (PA) and its derivatives, Phosphatidylcholines (PC) and their derivatives, Phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) and their derivatives, and Phosphatidylglycerols (PG) and their derivatives.
This is a services contract in the Research and health and medical services sectors, with a focus on Laboratories and Nutrition. Located in Hungary, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.

Description
Auto-translated from huLipidomics and lipid analysis of 155 animal tissue samples. The work must cover all samples, be performed in 3 analytical "packages", and cover all parameters. The bid and the results must include all biological parameters defined by the contracting authority. The samples will be handed over in stages under the contract, depending on the progress of the experiments, on 3 occasions at the place of performance specified in point II.2.3 of the invitation to tender (7400 Kaposvár, Guba Sándor u. 40.). 50 samples will be handed over at the first sample handover, 50 at the second, and the remaining 55 frozen biological samples at the third (total number of samples = 155). The earliest date for the first sample handover is the 10th calendar day after the contract is signed. The latest date for the third (last) sample handover is November 3, 2025. The contracting authority will specify the date of sample handover in writing, 10 calendar days in advance, for all three sample handovers. The deadline for submitting results is 84 calendar days from the date of sample handover, with the contracting authority accepting early performance for any partial delivery. The bid price includes the cost of the analytical work, the per-sample results, and the electronic transfer of results, as well as the cost of sample transport. The first step requires the extraction of total lipid content from the frozen animal tissue samples (maximum 1 g), followed by the implementation of stages 1 and 2: Stage 1: Quantitative determination (targeted analysis) of the following lipid fractions from each biological sample: - Sphingosine, - Sphinganine, - Sphingosine-1-phosphate - Sphinganine-1-phosphate. - Free ceramide - Free cholesterol Stage 2: Lipidomic (non-targeted) analysis for all lipid fractions listed below (for the entirety of detectable molecular forms), with quantitative determination: - PA – phosphatidic acid and its derivatives - PC – phosphatidylcholines and their derivatives - PE – phosphatidylethanolamines and their derivatives - PG – phosphatidylglycerols and their derivatives - PI – phosphatidylinositols and their derivatives - PS – phosphatidylserines and their derivatives - MAG – monoglycerides - DAG – diglycerides - TAG – triglycerides - SM – sphingomyelins - CE – cholesteryl esters - CER – ceramides - LacCer – lactosylceramides - HEXCER – hexosylceramides - CL – cardiolipins; - NEFA – non-esterified fatty acids.
