AUTOMATED LIQUID HANDLING SYSTEM MARKET: By Type; By Modality; By Application; By End User; By Geography - Forecast 2018 to 2023

Automated liquid handling (ALH) system refers to a laboratory instrument system consisting of tools and equipment, which are designed to perform the sampling, mixing and combining of liquid samples automatically in clinical and research settings. Automation is adopted in the wide range of life science applications ranging from genomics & proteomics to systems biology. Unlike manual liquid handling, ALH is precise, accurate, fast and consistent in its operations. In addition, ALH also decrease errors within and between operations, help conserve expensive reagents and rare or hard to- produce samples and save time. The key drivers attributed to the growing demand for automated liquid handling systems market include technological advancements associated with ALH systems, lack of skilled professionals and improved error free operations with ALH systems over manual liquid handling systems. Operational complexity coupled with the cost my acts as restraint for the market growth.
