End the compromise between lab efficiency and IT needs
Run your lab on an intuitive, user-friendly Chromatography Data System (CDS) that also scales from workstation to global deployment. Connecting people, instruments, and enterprise data management, Thermo Scientific Chromeleon CDS delivers productivity gains, data integrity, and full support of GMP compliance for chromatography, third party systems, including capillary electrophoresis, and Thermo Scientific mass spectrometry instruments.
Built-in Chromeleon eWorkflow™ provides you with the means to go from injection to final results in just three mouse clicks. Chromeleon CDS provides data security, audit-trails documentation and simplified reviews, and is built around a relational database to provide comprehensive coverage of functionality to adhere to GMP and data integrity guidelines.
Its service-oriented architecture allows for the fastest performance by separating high-load tasks to run in individual processes on dedicated hardware. With significant advances in system architecture delivering faster processing, particularly for MS users, and enhanced network stability for large networks through balanced distribution of data management and domain administration loads, your lab can perform like never before.
Chromeleon Enterprise Software effectively scales to accommodate over 1000 instruments and seamlessly connects users worldwide within a tiered enterprise system.
And now with the Thermo Scientific Ardia Platform connected software environment, you can super-charge your Chromeleon CDS with enhanced lab management tools and Ardia Server-side processing for even faster MS/MS data handling speeds.
