title: Primer for selecting lab equipment.
abstract: The preceding review provides a simplified presentation of many of the processes involved in selecting laboratory equipment--from a discussion of the most common phases of the selection process to a more comprehensive listing of the most common primary considerations and other, less-tangible issues. It was designed to provide laboratorians seeking to acquire new instruments with a framework for the collection of objective information and the evaluation of technical capabilities and acquisition options.
