Thanks, that is a relevant question, I was quite vague in the initial
question.
Potential HT applications on the Acumen and lets add the MDC IsoCyte
(as an alternative competitor) include phenotypic screening assays of
culture mammalian cells or possibly zebrafish or other organisms
challenged with RNAi or small molecule compounds. Assays may include
cell cycle, protein redistribution, or undefined morphological
features as provided by the optical resolution of the system. In
addition, it would be interesting to hear folk’s thoughts on
reliability of the system, any flaws in detection or optics, customer
support (which could be dependent on location), data analysis, data
management, etc.
If folks could give a grade score (A,B,C,D,F) of the following
components of the system that would be useful. 1)Company; 2)System
Hardware; 3)System Software - GUI; 4)Image & Data Analysis; 5)Data
Management; 6)Connectivity to 3rd party software packages, API, export
features, etc; 7)Usefulness of Service Contracts; 8)Customer
Service.
Again this is a forum to let users know without vendor bias what users
are experiencing - good and bad. Regardless of the responses this
should provide genuine feedback to both the end users and the
vendors. Thanks!
