Waters-Micromass and ACD/Labs Announce MassLynx Integration
LONG BEACH, CA. June 10th 2000 - ASMS - Waters-Micromass and ACD/Labs Announce MassLynx Integration.
At the American Society of Mass Spectrometry annual meeting in Long Beach,
California, Waters-Micromass and ACD/Labs announced push button integration
between Micromass MassLynx software (version 3.5) and ACD/MS Manager
(Version 4.5). ACD/Labs has supported MassLynx file
formats since the initial release of MS Manager but many customers have been
requesting higher integration. Due to our continued collaborative efforts we
have produced push button integration between our relevant software
packages. For MS or LC-MS spectra displayed in the MassLynx interface a
single button click will pass the files directly into the ACD/MS Manager
interface to allow access to such features as manual or automated chemical
structure assignment, CODA processing, spectral database management with integrated chemical structures and spectral
or subspectral searching of commercial MS databases such as NIST. Antony
Williams, Business Development manager ACD/Labs comments: "This is simply the
first stage of our collaborations to deliver the strengths of our molecular
structure based MS processing and prediction toolset and we look forward to
continued innovations with Waters-Micromass to benefit the field of Mass
Spectrometry."
Michael Balogh, Principal Scientist for LC-MS at Waters adds "LC/MS has
developed into a primary analytical technique across a broad range of
applications in a relatively short time. The inherent diversity of
applications, and that of its practitioners backgrounds and training, makes
a structure-oriented approach to generating data and extracting and
comprehending the information it represents the common ground. ACD/Labs has an
intelligent approach to integrating unique complementary capabilites with
the strengths of widely used, highly regarded software platforms such as
Millennium and MassLynx."
Mark McDowall, Micromass' International Marketing Manager comments "Our
partnership with ACDlabs leverages the market leading position of Micromass'
MassLynx products in the high performance LC-MS sector. The enhanced
integration of MassLynx 3.5 with the ACD/MS Manager is a key milestone in
Micromass' GLOBAL Mass-Informatics strategy"
