New technologies anchor application-specific
workflows for life sciences and applied markets
Pittcon 2017 -- Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (NYSE:
TMO), the world leader in serving science, today announced a
line-up of new products at the 2017 Pittcon Conference and
Exhibition that enable application-specific workflows for
pharma/biopharma, materials science, and environmental and food
safety markets. The company’s leading portfolio of integrated
instruments, consumables, software and services is featured in
booth 3021 in the West Hall of McCormick Place in Chicago, March
5-9, 2017.
“Customers want application-specific workflows anchored by
analytical instruments that are easy to use, yet powerful,” said
Dan Shine, senior vice president, analytical instruments, Thermo
Fisher Scientific. “We’re excited to introduce advanced instruments
and tailored workflows that help more technicians and individuals
across an enterprise quickly, and confidently, turn samples into
knowledge.”
Unrivaled Capabilities Across the Biopharma Workflow
Thermo Fisher is introducing the new Thermo Scientific iCAP
Triple-Quadrupole Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry
(iCAP TQ ICP-MS) system, which features powerful
identification capabilities designed for analytical accuracy in a
range of applications, including clinical research and
pharmaceutical QA/QC. An extension of the company’s highly
successful iCAP line, the new-generation iCAP TQ ICP-MS system is
expected to redefine triple quadrupole mass spectrometry by
combining increased power with simplified operation.
Pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical laboratories performing
qualitative and quantitative liquid chromatography (LC) or LC-MS
analysis can now rely on a single-vendor solution for sample
characterization. The Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Biopharma
workflow consists of a specially designed selection of
instruments, consumables, columns and software for rapid,
high-quality analysis.
New Era in Materials Characterization and Structural
Analysis
During product development, customers in a variety of industries
require workflows designed to enable rapid, multi-modal and
multi-scale characterization of new-generation materials. Thermo
Fisher is showcasing its industry-leading portfolio of instruments
for compositional, structural and physical analysis at a variety of
levels, including nanoscale. These offerings are further enhanced
by the new high-performance electron microscopy technologies
recently added through the acquisition of FEI Company.
In addition, the Thermo Scientific ARL QUANT’X Energy
Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometer,
which will debut at Pittcon, is designed to provide excellent
measurement sensitivity and analytical flexibility to determine the
full elemental composition across a broad range of samples,
including bulk solids, granules, powders, thin films and liquids.
It has been redesigned to be more efficient, easier to operate and
less expensive to own than the earlier model.
The Thermo Scientific iXR Raman spectrometer, also new at
Pittcon, is a compact, multi-modal Raman spectrometer that is
designed to provide simultaneous analytical data at a single
measurement point. Resulting information can deepen materials
understanding and accelerate product engineering by demonstrating
relationships between molecular composition and surface and
structural performance.
Solutions to Facilitate Environmental Compliance and Food
Integrity
Shifting environmental regulations and an increasingly global
food supply chain require workflows that enable high sensitivity
and fast, flexible analysis. In addition to the new Thermo
Scientific iCAP TQ ICP-MS, which can be used to analyze challenging
food matrices, Thermo Fisher offers a range of products for
pesticide analysis and food safety.
The Thermo Scientific Nicolet iN5 Fourier
Transform Infrared (FTIR) microscope helps customers in
food, manufacturing and academic labs to identify contaminants and
defects with point-and-shoot simplicity and minimal user training.
Thermo Fisher designed the iN5 to quickly and reliably identify
particulates, unknown materials and defects in food, plastics and
other products. The Nicolet iN5 FTIR microscope is the newest in
Thermo Fisher’s award-winning portfolio of FTIR products, which
have continually set the standard for compact size, affordability
and performance.
Thermo Fisher is also launching new ion chromatography (IC) and
gas chromatography (GC) columns and consumables for environmental
and industrial applications. The Thermo Scientific EPA
8270D analyzer kit is designed for environmental monitoring
laboratories implementing U.S. EPA Method 8270D for the
determination of semi-volatile organic compound concentrations in
soil, drinking water and wastewater. Thermo Scientific Dionex
IonPac columns offer advanced capabilities for detecting
compounds in drinking water, groundwater, wastewater and other
diverse samples.
Leading Digital Science Solutions
Thermo Fisher is highlighting expanded digital science
capabilities that position it to set new standards for
cloud-enabled laboratory and scientific data management.
The company recently acquired Core Informatics, which provides a
leading cloud-based platform supporting scientific data management.
Core’s capabilities include laboratory information management
systems (LIMS), electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) technologies
and scientific data management solutions (SDMS). The company also
offers an Application Marketplace to speed deployment and increase
value for customers across a broad range of industries and
scientific workflows. Core’s offerings will significantly enhance
Thermo Fisher’s existing informatics solutions and complement its
cloud capabilities, which support the company’s genetic analysis,
qPCR and proteomics systems.
Thermo Fisher is also launching the latest version of its
Thermo Scientific SampleManager LIMS – SampleManager 12
– a fully web-based LIMS, SDMS and procedural ELN that is
fully integrated with the gold-standard Chromeleon
chromatography data system (CDS) 7.2 SR5. This can enable labs
to design efficient workflows and manage data integrity, compliance
and data sharing across an entire enterprise.
