Achieving Great Science Bringing Together Physical Measurements and Chemical Analysis

Michael Boruta and Michel Hachey (ACD/Labs), and Keith Kociba (B&K Publishing)

Abstract

In today’s laboratory it is common to be involved in many aspects of the physical/chemical analysis of materials. Having the ability to keep track of all of this disparate data can be a major challenge, whether we are generating all of the data ourselves or it is coming from several departments. In addition, with all of this different data the possibility of misplacing something is much higher than we would like to admit. This talk will look at a tool that can be used to manage, analyze, annotate, and create reports from data sources as diverse as TGA, DSC, XRPD, optical spectroscopy, chromatography, Mass Spec, NMR, chemical structures, and meta-data. Having all of the data available to review and share across an organization improves the decision-making process and allows great science to be achieved.
