Thermo Fisher Scientific design data system that unites chromatography and MS technology
New data system is capable of processing chromatography and MS data under the same software umbrella.
Thermo Fisher Scientific have announced the release of the first chromatography data system software platform to support MS instrument control and data processing with integrated separation techniques (LC, GC, ion chromatography). Heralded by David Leitham, Vice President of chromatography software at Thermo Fisher, as, “the latest step in a long-term campaign to simplify the use of analytical tools,” the system, known as the Chromeleon 7.2 Chromatography Data System, is designed to provide a user-friendly means of applying MS technology to routine and quantitative analyses.
“We started in the ‘90s by extending Chromeleon software support to multiple vendors’ chromatography platforms, and we later re-engineered Chromeleon to the latest software architecture to further simplify workflows,” explained Leitham. The latest Chromeleon software, “now joins separations and MS control and data processing under the same, familiar software umbrella,” Leitham added.
In addition to streamlining chromatography and MS quantitation workflows, the Chromeleon 7.2 possesses a suite of automation tools that enable reduced review and data processing time. A consolidated report function is also capable of generating summaries of large data sets, to facilitate the interpretation of results, and the eWorkflowsTM feature allows for the automated completion of many routine tasks. The Chromeleon software platform has also been modeled to accommodate future upgrades.
According to press release from Thermo Fisher, the software itself is designed for broad application across a variety of workflows and is suitable for pharmaceutical, chemical and environmental laboratories.
