Bio-Rad Laboratories has announced the launch of a new spectroscopy reference database and software product, KnowItAll U, for academic research and teaching
The new product represents a powerful combination of reference data, tools, and technologies that will assist faculty, staff, and students in their scholarly research.
In addition, KnowItAll U can be used to train students in the skills and technologies they will need once they leave academia.
A KnowItAll U annual site license includes a collection of software tools and over 1.2 million spectra.
All Bio-Rad Sadtler spectra: 390,000 IR, NMR, Raman, and mass spectra (including UV-Vis and additional NMR in Q4).
All John Wiley and Sons spectra: 845,000 IR, NIR, NMR, and mass spectra.
All spectra of Wolfgang Robien / Universitat Wien: 117,000 NMR spectra.
SpectraBase community database: a peer-reviewable database of NMR, IR, UV-Vis, Raman, NIR, and mass spectra edited and reviewed by selected members of the community.
KnowItAll Informatics system: Bio-Rad's award-winning spectroscopy, cheminformatics, and chemometrics software for Microsoft Windows.
KnowItAll AnyWare: a web browser-enabled client that is hardware, operating system, and browser independent, allowing access to the KnowItAll U database collection via Windows, Macintosh, or Linux.
"KnowItAll U represents a tremendous resource for academic research and teaching" said Greg Banik, general manager of Bio-Rad's informatics division.
