Luminata® Overview

The Only Software That Brings Together All of Your Team’s Process and Analytical Data in One Place

The future of science is collaborative

Modern pharmaceutical and chemical development teams must share information between many scientists, who are often spread across many locations, using different instruments.

Your data should be useful

More sources of data mean more spreadsheets, incompatible files, and time spent tracking down results. Information becomes siloed and data management gets in the way of research.

Make your data work for you with Luminata

Luminata lets your team store, search, map, process, and reuse all your chemical, analytical, and process data in one application. Streamline your chemical and pharmaceutical development with Luminata’s digital environment.

Product Features

Features of Luminata

Consolidate all your process development information in one location. Connect analytical data with route schema to ensure a complete understanding of multi-stage process routes.

  • Build comprehensive maps for your evolving process
  • Link analytical data to each chemical in your scheme
  • Create process maps by importing LC/UV/MS datasets or select existing compounds from the reference dictionary
  • Categorize entries in the process scheme as Starting Materials, Intermediates, APIs, Impurities, Degradants, Solvents, or Reagents
  • Auto-populate output tables by linking attribute maps (process, formulation, stability, etc.) with analytical data
Deployment/Integration Options

Conveniently Share Data through a Web Client

Use the Luminata browser-based client to access your data from anywhere and share project data with colleagues. No need to be tied to the instrument lab or office computer.

 

Unparalleled Compatibility with Analytical Instruments

ACD/Labs is the leader in vendor-agnostic chemistry software. We partner with dozens of vendors, supporting >150 file types, and thousands of instruments, so you can continue using the equipment you need.

Connect Your Analytical Results with Process or In Silico Data

Luminata can manage more than analytical chemistry data. Link experimental results with laboratory reactor data, forced degradation simulations, and in silico predictions.

 

Tailored to Your Process & Environment

When it comes to complex data management, one-size solutions rarely fit. We work with you to design the deployment of Luminata to serve your data, instruments, and workflow. Get the custom fit of an in-house solution with the quality and upkeep of a commercial product.

Compatible with All Your Instruments and Techniques

More Reasons to Use Luminata

Transcend the Spreadsheet

Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets are made for balancing a household budget, not discovering the next pharmaceutical breakthrough, or mapping a chemical supply chain. So why do scientists still rely on spreadsheets to manage their data? A 2022 survey conducted by ACD/Labs found that 68% of research scientists still use Microsoft programs to store and share their data.

Luminata is built to meet the needs of chemical and pharmaceutical research teams:

  • Chemically Intelligent—Does your Excel spreadsheet understand chemistry? Luminata’s chemically intelligent software enables structure searches and reaction mapping.
  • Validation—Speed-up regulatory submissions by connecting each piece of data to an ELN entry. No more hunting for files when compiling reports.
  • Rich Analytical Data—Peak tables only tell half the story. Get more insights out of your experiments with analytical data that is interactive, usable, complete, and connected.
  • Quality by Design (QbD)—Apply QbD principles to your research using dynamic process and impurity maps.
  • Collaborate—Seamlessly share results straight from the benchtop to the boardroom. Luminata is the drug development software that brings everyone together.

Are You Luminata-Ready?

50% of the world’s top 15 biopharma companies are using Luminata to enhance their development work. Luminata changes the way scientists access and share data, leading to better, more efficient product development.

Is your organization ready for Luminata? If you answer yes to any of the following, you may benefit from Luminata:

  • Do you have difficulty finding all of the associated project documents?
  • Are you storing analytical, process, and chemical data in multiple data silos that cannot communicate?
  • Does your research team spend significant time preparing fate and purge or process control justification reports?
  • Does your research take place at multiple sites or involve contract organizations?
  • Are you working to digitally transform your development activities?
  • Would team leaders or management benefit from more information about the progress of your project?
  • Do you have the necessary IT infrastructure to deploy an advanced chemical data management solution?
