This market report summarizes the results of HTStec’s global web-based survey on live cell and kinetic high content screening imaging carried out in December 2008. The main objectives were to comprehensively document current use, interest and requirements for live cell and kinetic HCS imaging as well as identifying emerging applications, market opportunities, unmet needs and demand for products.

The survey looked at aspects of live cell and kinetic HCS imaging as practiced today (2008) and predicted (2010). The subjects investigated included the level of current use of fixed cell HCS assays, use of fixed cell HCS assays; interest and use of live cell end point, live cell kinetic and live cell fast response kinetic HCS imaging assays; % of HCS assays that image live cells; % of assays that involve a liquid dispense followed by fast response kinetic imaging; plans to purchase new live cell and kinetic HCS imaging instruments; preferred instrument configuration; budget for consumables and its breakdown; time course requirements; environmental control requirements; liquid handling requirements and the need for improved instruments.
