ESA Biosciences and Waters announce
collaboration
ESA Biosciences and Waters are working together to integrate the ESA Corona Cad universal HPLC detector with the Waters Empower 2 chromatography control and data-analysis platform
The Corona charged-aerosol detector (Cad) can analyse effectively a wide diversity of chemical structures and important classes of molecules - from small organic molecules, proteins and peptides, to ions, carbohydrates, lipids, and polymers Many scientists in the pharmaceutical industry already combine a Waters Empower 2 software-controlled LC system with the Corona Cad detector for applications ranging from excipient and formulation characterisation and forced-degradation studies to impurity analysis, cleaning validations, and final product QC

ESA Biosciences has published an informative 14-page guide for laboratories interested in gaining the full sensitivity and selectivity benefits from a HPLC electrochemical detection (ECD) system
However, today, this requires an additional data-interface module.
"In working with ESA Biosciences, we are responding to the needs of our Empower 2 software users who are using the Corona Cad for their applications.
"By adding a new feature into our Empower software to control ESA's detector, we're giving our customers more choices and more ways to be successful," said Bill Foley, director - product marketing, Waters.
ESA's vice president of life sciences marketing, Jasmine Gruia-Gray, said: "We listen closely to customer suggestions for product enhancements - a key part our commitment to continuously improve results and help scientists do their jobs better, faster, and easier.
"Customers have asked for a direct interface between the Corona Cad and Empower platforms.
"We're pleased to work with Waters so we can meet our respective customers' needs".
When the project is completed (expected Q3 2008), ESA will provide free of charge the Empower 2 software driver to existing Corona Cad customers. Request free introductory details about products from ESA Biosciences ...
