Waters® Empower™ 2 Chromatography Data Management Software Ships
Waters Corporation today announced it is shipping Waters Empower 2 Software, the company’s flagship chromatography data management software solution. First introduced at the 2005 PITTCON conference and exhibition in February, Empower 2 Software acquires, manages, processes, reports and distributes data generated by Waters ACQUITY UPLC™ and Alliance® systems as well as third-party instruments.
Features in Empower 2 Software increase the productivity and efficiency of an analytical laboratory’s workflow. A s ingle window interface centralizes the user’s experience so that scientists can easily collect, process, customize and print experimental results . Advanced data and system management tools to ensure analytical system availability and automated custom calculations let scientists run samples and make critical decisions during the analysis. Empower 2 Software monitors chromatographic results, compares these results to predefined limits and responds appropriately to any condition to assure scientists of increased system uptime and sample throughput.
Empower 2 Software’s enhanced integration with Waters NuGenesis® SDMS (Scientific Data Management System) Software and Waters eLab Notebook™ Software makes data transfer to information management solutions transparent to the end user. This cohesive informatics environment allows scientists to multi-task among integrated applications and make decisions in real-time, thereby improving the laboratory’s efficiency.
Compliance is critical in the laboratory, whether submitting applications for new drug candidates or qualifying for exclusivity rights for generics with regulatory agencies. Today’s major upgrade of Empower 2 Software provides more audit trail documentation options such as pre-defined lists, comment fields or yes/no parameters to automatically validate any change in order to maintain compliance.
