ELISPOT

One company is having a promotional offer in which they help customers donate their older ELISPOT analyzers to a worthy laboratory in Africa or South America. That's a delightful sentiment, and there are surely many needy labs in those regions that could use the assistance.

I wonder if it might be possible to donate some of these items to other third-world nations, though -- possibly in some parts of Asia, perhaps? I'm sure that there are commercial reasons why these options aren't being offered. Electrical issues doubtlessly come into play, for example; after all, not all countries use the same electrical ratings. India, for example, uses these oddball plugs that are quite annoying.

Oh, well. Anyway, it's a delightful sentiment, and I hope that it gets a lot of attention.
