The NMReady offers spectroscopic resolution at a fraction of the size, cost and maintenance of current NMR instrumentation and allows users to quickly perform routine NMR measurements (sample proton spectra and fluorine spectra).
The spectrometer is also low maintenance due to the magnetic field generated by permanent rare earth magnets so cryogens and weekly maintenance are no longer needed. GPE Scientific launched the Nanalysis NMReady to the UK and Ireland markets in March 2014 and has already had an overwhelming response from Chemists, Academics and Researchers within the NMR community. The NMReady was the first 60 Mhz all in one spectrometer available on the benchtop NMR market and the higher field offers greater resolution and peak separation than is possible from lower-field competitors....

Ranjith Gopinathan, Life Sciences Programme Manager at Frost & Sullivan, comments on the Novartis – GSK deal
The pharmaceutical industry is witnessing a new wave of mergers and acquisitions activities, especially mega M&As. Big pharma companies have historically been fighting, albeit with little success, on various issues such as patent expiry of blockbuster molecules, regulatory hurdles, generics competition, under utilization of resources, declining pipeline due to a low R&D productivity and governmental price control. Biopharmaceutical companies with a strong biologics pipeline and low exposure to patent expiries have become the most attractive acquisition targets....

Over the years, the businesses of Xylem Analytics have made it a point to address customer needs. And a perfect example of that is the implementation of an OI Analytical photometric detector during the processing of spearmint oils to help address the volatility of sulfur compounds.
During the development of spearmint and other essential oils, analytical labs are challenged by volatile sulfur compounds, as they impart undesirable odors to essential oils and have extremely low olfactory thresholds. So the detecting, quantifying, and eliminating of sulfur compounds is an important aspect of flavor and fragrance quality control work. Two species of spearmint is cultivated in the United States every year, with 1.09 million kilograms of spearmint oil produced in the U.S. in 2008....
