Snip from a Yahoo post of mine concerning Kodak as a competitor: >>Your mention of Kodak is interesting. Their machine also images GFP (i.e. fluorescence), among other wavelengths. I haven't noticed AntiCancer trying to sue THEM. Check out these spec sheets: kodak.com ml xenogen.com Gotta be the animal models/tumor lines, then. As for Kodak, since their machines are used for a number of imaging modalities -- even X-Rays -- it's hard to say how many of them directly compete with XGEN systems's. But since Kodak systems can be used with any light-emitting animal model, the question for me is where researchers using Kodak imaging equipment are getting those animal models. From AntiCancer or Xenogen (making their own)? Kodak does say that "hundreds" of researchers use their system, so obviously there is an impact regarding system sales. It would be useful to know how much those things cost.<< Cheers, Tuck
