To my mind the trouble is that, implicitly,
you test floating point values for equality,
which is usually not recommended.

Assuming the equation depends on t1,
you could, for example, proceed this way :


t1[i_Integer] = 94.8+0.001*i;

Do[eq = {x'[t]==0.001*x[t]*t1[i], x[0]==1};
   sol = NDSolve[eq,{x},{t,0,10}];
   xt[i] = Interpolation[Table[{t,x[t]/.sol//First},{t,0,10}]],
{i,0,199}];

Do[Print[{t1[i], xt[i][3.2]}], {i,0,9}]


{94.8,1.3544}
{94.801,1.3544}
{94.802,1.35441}
{94.803,1.35441}
{94.804,1.35442}
{94.805,1.35442}
{94.806,1.35443}
{94.807,1.35443} 
{94.808,1.35444} 
{94.809,1.35444}
