Tatiana Didenko of Amgen provides an overview of how Amgen analysts use ACD/Labs software to support high-throughput NMR workflows in compound library generation within Discovery. Tatiana describes the workflow, instrument set up, data management of LC/MS and NMR data, convenient database search parameters for data access, integration with their ELN, and results of an automated...

The high throughput purification (HTP) group at Merck supports discovery chemistry to provide fast results for next step decisions. In this presentation, Jun discusses the use of vendor agnostic data management, chromatographic retention time prediction, and automation to drive greater efficiency in HTP. Hear about: Assembly of LC/UV/MS data from different instrument vendors Automated data...

Spring is finally here, and you know what else that means – conference season is back! Now is an opportunity to meet chemists from all over to learn about what is happening in the world of science. Sanji Bahl is the Director of the Marketing and Communications team here at ACD/Labs, and she had a...

Is there anything that analytical chemists hate more than false positives and false negatives? While it is impossible to eliminate error completely, it is possible to control it. Understanding the relationship between false positives and negatives allows us to optimize our experimental design. We discuss more in this blog post.

Regulations regarding chemical software and data can be intimidating. What is software validation? How does that relate to Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)? It all begins to sound like legal mumbo jumbo. Luckily, we can help demystify GXP. Dr. Karim Kassam has helped many clients implement ACD/Labs software in regulated environments....

AstraZeneca uses ACD/Labs software to make analytical data accessible as part of their Global Analytical Database. In this presentation, you’ll get an overview of how this database is used by chemists and analysts for data processing, data storage, and knowledge sharing. Two case studies are also shown to highlight how access to centralized data can...

Sanofi partnered with ACD/Labs to develop an automated lab tool combining LC/MS and 1H NMR to help organic chemists efficiently verify their structures. This tool collects, compiles, and evaluates the analytical data and the proposed structure once they are available, and sends the results to the chemist. The pilot project for this system is presented...
