Hi,
Does anyone here have any information regarding multi-array capillary electrophoresis
sequencers. I have been hearing rumours that such machines are feasible and are currently
being tested on either 8 or 96 array formats using confocal microscope.
ABI have released the 310 but it only has a single capillary electrophoresis and I have been
told that such machines are not feasible to make. The advantage of making them though is huge
since you can get 96 sequences in 3 hours. So does anyone have any info on this and any views
on why it is not feasible to make such machines commercially available.
Thanks.
Rifat.
