Revision allows analytical laboratories to deploy networked data system for pharmaceutical QA/QC in terminal server environments
Agilent Technologies Europe has announced shipments of a revision of Agilent Cerity networked data system (NDS) for pharmaceutical QA/QC.
This revision allows analytical laboratories to deploy Cerity NDS for pharmaceutical QA/QC in terminal server environments.
Terminal server configurations have become very popular in laboratories that are subject to FDA regulations because this technology enables the use of software applications on so-called thin clients, which require significantly less effort in terms of software installation, distribution, validation and qualification.
This capability is particularly relevant for large, multi-user, multi-technique laboratories, helping them to cut costs and increase productivity.
Further, this revision of Cerity NDS for pharmaceutical QA/QC adds instrument control and data acquisition capabilities for Agilent 6850 gas chromatographs, widely used in QA/QC laboratories in the pharmaceutical and other industries.
This complements the level-4 instrument control of networked instrumentation from Agilent, including Agilent 1100 series liquid chromatographs, Agilent 6890 and 6850 gas chromatographs, and Agilent 35900E dual channel interfaces.
Cerity NDS for pharmaceutical QA/QC also provides full instrument control of GPIB-based instrumentation such as Waters Alliance systems.
The versatile, networked instrument capabilities, combined with the fully scalable client-server architecture of Cerity NDS for pharmaceutical QA/QC, make the system a perfect fit for pharmaceutical QA/QC labs.
Cerity NDS for pharmaceutical QA/QC supports compliance with electronic records and signatures control methods required under the US Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDA 21 CFR Part 11) as well as other regulations and quality standards such as GMP, cGMP, GAMP, and ISO 17025.
The Agilent Cerity networked data system for pharmaceutical QA/QC is available now worldwide and can be ordered through any Agilent Technologies sales office.
Prices vary depending on the network requirements of the laboratory, the number of users, and the number of instruments to be controlled.
