Nigel and thread, Some Aclara commentary, FWIW. See the last three large paragraphs of this post: Message 16987383 I might add that part of Aclara's future selling points is that their chips can be easily integrated with "existing" equipment. This is true in terms of plate handling equipment, since the chips are plate sized. The liquid dispensing bottleneck mentioned in the above post needs to go away before that is really true. At that point, Aclara's chips could gain traction very quickly. They are cheaper than Caliper's, and maybe better, and won't require an Agilent work station. Not sure what to make of their protein chemistries or their upcoming Plurex product. At the lab automation show, I was told that so many prospective partners were interested in that product that the hard part would be choosing the right one. Let's hope so, and let's hope they're discriminating. One of their current partners is -- gulp -- Roche. Need to do more research; I'm interested because it looks so cheap. But given the fundamental situation, I think I've got some time, and other things -- as noted in that post -- are more urgent now. Cheers, Tuck
