Abstract

Laboratory automation with robot-assisted processes enhances synthetic biology, but its economic impact on projects is uncertain. We have proposed an experiment price index (EPI) for a quantitative comparison of factors in time, cost, and sample numbers, helping measure the efficiency of laboratory automation in synthetic biology and biomolecular engineering.

衡量生物技术实验室自动化的经济效益。

使用机器人辅助流程的实验室自动化提高了合成生物学的水平，但其对项目的经济影响尚不确定。我们提出了一种实验价格指数（EPI），用于定量比较时间、成本和样品数量等因素，帮助衡量合成生物学和生物分子工程中实验室自动化的效率。

期刊介绍： Trends in Biotechnology publishes reviews and perspectives on the applied biological sciences, focusing on useful science applied to, derived from, or inspired by living systems. The major themes that TIBTECH is interested in include: Bioprocessing (biochemical engineering, applied enzymology, industrial biotechnology, biofuels, metabolic engineering) Omics (genome editing, single-cell technologies, bioinformatics, synthetic biology) Materials and devices (bionanotechnology, biomaterials, diagnostics/imaging/detection, soft robotics, biosensors/bioelectronics) Therapeutics (biofabrication, stem cells, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, antibodies and other protein drugs, drug delivery) Agroenvironment (environmental engineering, bioremediation, genetically modified crops, sustainable development).
