Product news

Analytical knowledge management software expands the HT Platform— ACD/Analytical Automation Suite is flexible, customizable automation software that streamlines analytical processes such as data collection, interpretation, comparison, optimization, databasing and reporting. Eliminate backlog, improve data quality, and get instant access to information.

Visit ACD/Labs at booth #387 to learn about these applications:

NMR Verification
Unambiguously confirm structure-spectrum match for 75–90% of samples using 1D and 2D NMR spectra and their corresponding proposed chemical structures. This results in extensive time savings when compared to standard spectral evaluation processes.

Chiral Method Selection
Automatic method selection increases throughput of chiral sample purification. Diverse instrument data is automatically combined with chemical structures and metadata, generating a knowledgebase of thousands of separations.

Purity Assessment by LCMS
Before screening compound libraries, make sure you have the compounds you think you have. LC/MS deconvolution algorithms use chromatographic and MS information to automatically reduce the number of false positives, and help identify impurities.

Analytical Data Management
Effectively manage your data, in an affordable and uncomplicated package. Store and manage all information for each chemical structure, reaction, and synthetic sequence, adding related data, descriptive textual notes, batch and project IDs, links to associated documents, and analytical data—all fully searchable by structure or text queries.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis.

Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.

It is useful for optimizing economical and efficient drug production. Process chemistry uses reactors and pump systems as well as reagents, standards and buffers.Software PlatformsSoftware platforms are useful for various stages of laboratory experiments from data collection to data storage and processing. For instance lab software is available for system control, data management, data analysis and qualification / validation.Electronic Laboratory NotebooksElectronic Laboratory Notebooks (ELNs) are becoming increasingly popular for documenting experimental processes and for lab data management. An ELN is informatics software which can be biology specific, chemistry specific, cross-disciplinary or web-based. Advantages of an electronic lab notebook include increased data protection, efficiency and straightforward data searching and sharing.
