Analytik Jena integrates SPECORD PLUS devices into LMS systems for efficiency boost

Digitalize your measurement processes in UV/Vis technology range

26 Mar 2025

Product news

Analytik Jena now offers laboratories with a high degree of automation and a large number of samples per day, the ability to centralize and digitize their measurement processes in the UV/Vis technology range. The latest update of the UV/Vis device software ASpect UV enables the control of Analytik Jena’s SPECORD PLUS devices via an external Laboratory Management System (LMS).

With the new SOAP (simple object access protocol) interface module of the ASpect UV software, methods can be created, measurements performed, and results reported back to the system directly from the LMS. The associated analytical device SPECORD PLUS is thus fully integrated into the system landscape. This allows users to work in their existing LMS without having to learn and use separate device software. Users can start measurements flexibly from anywhere.

The software module tracks all content and processes, thereby avoiding manual data copying errors between different systems.

​In addition, the current update of the ASpect UV software provides extended functions for kinetic measurements and significantly more comprehensive, formula-based data evaluation. With the new 21 CFR Part 11 compliance module, ASpect UV offers regulated industries, such as the pharmaceutical, food, or beverage industries, a further advantage: integration with the customer’s user management via Active Directory eliminates the need to create separate user accounts and passwords for ASpect UV.

UV-Visible SpectroscopyUltraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometers are used to measure the interaction of UV and visible light with a sample, including transmission, reflectance & absorbance. The two major instrument classes are single-beam or double-beam spectrophotometers. More specialized equipment includes colorimeters, spectroradiometers and refractometers. Portable and microvolume spectrophotometers are also available. For the modular spectroscopy lab, explore a range of light sources for combination with a spectrograph/spectrometer and optics.
