The Muthuswamy Lab in the Laboratory of Cancer Biology and Genetics (LCBG), Center for Cancer Research (CCR), National Cancer Institute (NCI) currently has an Intelligent Imaging Innovations Marianas Super-Resolution Spinning Disk Confocal Microscopy System with C-Shaper that requires service contract coverage. Periodic maintenance is required to ensure continued operation by keeping the instrument in good working order to avoid damage or failure. Technical support and local service is needed for both hardware and software support to ensure maximum user time on the microscope and minimal “down-time” for repairs and /or training on the system. This is a necessity as any instrument downtime has the potential to affect the work of the Muthuswamy Lab which uses the system for confocal and super resolution 3D and 4D time lapse imaging of patient derived organoids to further their organoid-based cancer research. The Contractor shall provide all labor, material and equipment for preventive maintenance on this machine. All maintenance services shall be performed in accordance with the manufacturer's standard maintenance practices.
