Matt Osborne from AstraZeneca provides an overview of sustainability goals for green laboratories and how software can be employed to meet them—focused on chromatographic method development. Matt highlights how they use physicochemical prediction and chromatographic simulation software to achieve optimized, robust, and rugged methods with greater efficiency and sustainability.

Chromatography aims to separate an analyte mixture into sharp, symmetrical, and well-resolved peaks for quantitative and qualitative analysis. To do this, it is crucial to understand ionization and the ionic form(s) of analytes at a given pH. The use of predictive software tools allows quick selection of optimal conditions and helps build robustness into methods from the start.

This release expands structure characterization functionality for scientists, improves analytical data management and assembly across analytical techniques and data formats, and further supports proliferation of data from the Spectrus platform to third party data science applications. Toronto, CANADA (September 12, 2023)—ACD/Labs, an informatics company that develops and commercializes software in support of R&D, today announced...

How ACD/Labs Enables More Robust, Efficient Separations With the increasingly challenging demands confronted by separation scientists on their expertise, resources, and time, traditional chromatography approaches are often lacking. Chromatographers require advanced informatics solutions that offer comprehensive coverage of all method development functions. Learn how ACD/Labs’ strategies enable compliance with Quality by Design (QbD) regulatory expectations,...

The highly coveted Gaussian peak, a sharp symmetrical shape on a flat baseline, is the ideal peak shape in chromatography. Why is it so highly desired? Naturally, we tend to be drawn to the beauty of symmetry, but more importantly, good peak shape is important for better resolution (Rs) and increased accuracy in quantitation.
