. The recommendations of the Task Force on Laboratory Automation are mainly general, applicable to all types of major equipment and covering in brief the points most likely to be overlooked in the purchase and installation of blood‐grouping machines and allied units. The needs for collaboration between users and for the proper use of international standards are stressed. Specific recommendations on the two main systems cover financial implications and the use of the systems in screening for antibodies to red cell antigens.
