Symbion Systems Releases Version 2.1 of its Standardized Analytical Instrument Software
TUSTIN, Calif., February 25, 2009 - Symbion Systems, Inc., a leader in providing analytical instrument control, analysis, and connectivity software, today announced the release of Symbion-LX, Version 2.1. The new version preserves all of the advanced features of the earlier versions of Symbion-LX while adding a greatly expanded library of mathematical routines and a series of instrument control and data collection interfaces specifically tailored to the requirements of individual instruments. The user simply clicks on the name of a particular instrument and the control/collect screen becomes a dedicated control panel for that instrument. The specifications for each control/collect screen are included in a software driver for the specified instrument. Drivers are currently available for many of the spectrometers widely used in process analytical technology (PAT) in such application areas as chemical and process development and on-line process analysis. Among these are drivers for instruments manufactured by Kaiser Optical Systems, Bruker Optics, Yokogawa Electric, ABB, Hamilton Sundstrand, and Axsun Technologies.
In common with the earlier versions of Symbion-LX Version 2.1 provides a standardized platform for controlling a wide range of spectrometers and other analytical instruments. In addition, it provides comprehensive data manipulation and application development capabilities as well as the ability to communicate with numerous chemometric routines, other third party programs, and enterprise-wide data systems. In short, Symbion-LX is a truly universal "Spectroscopic Data System" for use in such fields as LIMS, chemical development, and pharmaceutical process design and scale-up.
Symbion-LX, Version 2.1, is fully Windows(TM) compliant, with attractive features such as the ability to integrate analytical data into reports written in Word(TM) or other Windows programs. At the same time, it provides a high degree of data and user interface standardization while supporting all of the unique requirements of specific instruments. Finally, Version 2.1 provides the capability of storing data either as files or in a modern SQL database. The latter provides comprehensive search capability as well as ease of handoff of data to other software entities such as multivariate programs and data historians.
