Thermo Fisher Scientific Announces Chromatography Software Control For the High Speed Accela LC Enabling Fast and Efficient Data Analysis

23 Feb 2007

Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, announces that its ChromQuest™ Chromatography Data System (CDS) now provides integrated instrument control, digital data acquisition, chromatography data processing and reporting for the Thermo Scientific Accela™ High Speed LC.

The company’s innovative HPLC instrument has been designed to maximize the benefits of Thermo Scientific Hypersil GOLD™ 1.9 µm column particle technology and enables LC and LC/MS users to conduct high speed, high efficiency chromatographic separations from conventional to ultra high pressures of up to 15,000 psi.

ChromQuest CDS 4.2 provides integrated instrument control for each Accela component, including autosampler, high-speed pump and PDA detector. ChromQuest’s enhanced security features meet the latest requirements for data traceability while guaranteeing security and ensuring compliance to 21 CFR Part 11 guidelines.

In addition to providing instrument control for Accela, ChromQuest CDS provides full instrument control for all Thermo Scientific brand LC and GC systems allowing laboratories to utilize a single software solution for all of their chromatography needs. It also provides seamless integration of Accela results with enterprise-wide informatics applications, such as the Thermo Scientific WATSON LIMS.

ChromQuest CDS with the Accela High Speed LC is designed to meet the analytical needs of LC and LC/MS users in drug development, discovery, QA/QC laboratories, academia and the food and beverage industry using PC workstations with Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/2003 Server operating systems.

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems.

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.
