As industry leading manufacturers of physical reference materials, MilliporeSigma saw the need for digital solutions in comparative analysis workflows. In response, they’ve taken the first steps to usher in a new era of digital analysis with their online digital reference platform, ChemisTwinâ„¢.  Powered by NMR Workbook Suite, this new tool cuts analysis time for QC...

Navigating the complexities of laboratories equipped with various instruments and diverse software packages is a common challenge in R&D organizations. Like many others, the team of process chemists in Pfizer’s Pharmaceutical Sciences Small Molecule (PSSM) team faced this challenge. They had a variety of instruments (some over 20 years old) and processed their LC/UV/MS data...

In the pursuit of improved compound identification and database search tasks, this study explores heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC) spectra simulation and matching methodologies. HSQC spectra serve as unique molecular fingerprints, enabling a valuable balance of data collection time and information richness. We conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the following four HSQC simulation techniques: ACD/Labs...

Drug molecules slowly degrade over time, which can lead to a loss of medicinal potency or increased side effects for patients. Pharmaceutical development scientists must thoroughly assess a medication’s stability using a combination of real-world experiments and mathematical modeling. Unfortunately, most researchers do not have the software they need to support their accelerated stability assessment....

In this episode, ACD/Labs Senior Director of Technical and Scientific Services, Karim Kassam joins hosts Jesse and Bally to dive deeper into the importance of ionization. He gives us some insight into the tools available to help accurately predict pKa along with some hints and tips to help improve accuracy in predictions. Read more about...
