What Research Needs, ACD/Labs Delivers with Their New Version Release
| This past year our continued focus in the development of version 10 has been to extend the capabilities of our software suite |
Each year the development and investigation of new chemical entities results in the generation of vast quantities of data, information, and extracted knowledge. ACD/Labs’ continued focus in the development of version 10 has been to extend the capabilities of our software suite to offer superior chemical structure handling, property prediction, and analytical data processing, databasing, and knowledge capture and dissemination. With our ongoing passion for innovation we will release to market many firsts for the scientific software industry, further enhancing the ability of scientists to make better decisions faster, and addressing key business drivers.
For more than 12 years, ACD/Labs has provided software to pharmaceutical and chemical R&D scientists to assist in their endeavors. The automation of challenging and monotonous tasks such as spectral processing and routine interpretation frees up time for other valuable functions. The generation of databases that leverage existing analytical data by collecting and combining information from various techniques and vendor formats put the efforts of past research to work for the benefit of current and future projects. Predictive tools that help gain insight into the starting point of a new chromatographic method, or the ability to utilize property prediction to optimize a drug candidate, can eliminate hours or days of work. Presently, ACD/Labs’ commitment to the evolving needs of our users is embodied in the release of our version 10 software with upgrades, new functionality, and expanded capabilities based on industry advancement and additional integration to our collaborators and partners, and driven by user feedback.
"This past year our continued focus in the development of version 10 has been to extend the capabilities of our software suite," says Antony Williams, VP and Chief Science Officer for ACD/Labs. "With our ongoing passion for innovation, we will release to market many firsts for the scientific software industry, addressing key business drivers and further enhancing the ability of scientists to make better decisions faster."
Among the Version 10 additions and enhancements are:
• Augmented functionality of expert spectroscopy interpretation software for NMR, MS, UV-vis, IR, and Raman
• Additional vendor formats to make the integration of spectroscopic techniques more comprehensive
• Innovative products to assist in the efficient development of chromatographic methods using both LC/MS and LC/UV (DAD, PDA)
• Expanded databases of experimental results improving the accuracy of predictive tools for aqueous Solubility and NMR
• Enhanced nomenclature capabilities to include chemical structures with isotopic substituents
"The delivery of version 10 will be the culmination of tens of thousands of hours of effort," adds Williams. "As always we will celebrate our release only as a result of the positive feedback from our users. We never rest on our laurels and are already hard at work on our next developments. At the spring shows in 2007, we will unveil new products to the ACD/Labs suite of offerings that will facilitate even deeper integration into Enterprise systems and demonstrate our continued commitment to invention."
