==History==
==History==
Waters Corporation started out as Waters Associates in 1958, building custom instruments. By 1963 the fledgling company expanded to making chromatography equipment. In the 1970s, Waters Associates began to focus primarily on chromatography systems. In May 1980, Waters Associates merged with the Millipore Corporation, becoming the Waters Chromatography Division. The success of the new acquisition wasn't as expected due to various factors, and in 1994, an investor group led by Waters management bought the assets of the division to eventually become Waters Corporation.<ref name="WatersHist">{{cite web |url=http://www.waters.com/webassets/other/corp/about/assets/files/HistoryW.pdf |format=PDF |title=The History of Jim Waters and Waters Corporation |publisher=Waters Corporation |year=2008 |accessdate=16 April 2014}}</ref>

Waters Corporation manufactures and distributes analytic instruments for scientists. The company also develops and distributes laboratory informatics software solutions.

History

Waters Corporation started out as Waters Associates in 1958, building custom instruments. By 1963 the fledgling company expanded to making chromatography equipment. In the 1970s, Waters Associates began to focus primarily on chromatography systems. In May 1980, Waters Associates merged with the Millipore Corporation, becoming the Waters Chromatography Division. The success of the new acquisition wasn't as expected due to various factors, and in 1994, an investor group led by Waters management bought the assets of the division to eventually become Waters Corporation.[1]

On December 15, 2020, Waters Corporation acquired all of the outstanding stock of Integrated Software Solutions Ltd. and its operating subsidiaries for $4 million, with an earn out provision.[2]

Technology and products

Empower 3 and NuGenesis 8

Empower 3 is a scalable chromatography data system (CDS) designed "to run samples and produce meaningful results without experiencing downtime for training, re-engineering workflow, or adding new software to support instruments or advanced chromatographic techniques."[3] Features include: chemical structure management, dissolution management, GPC/SEC support, tracking, trending, data analysis and conversion laboratory analytics, 21 CFR Part 11-compliant, role-based security, connection to a wide variety of Waters and third-party instruments, and mobile support.[4]

NuGenesis 8 — also known as NuGenesis Lab Management System — "is a comprehensive data management and workflow solution that supports the entire product lifecycle from discovery through manufacturing."[5] The software platform includes an electronic laboratory notebook (NuGenesis ELN), a scientific data management system (NuGenesis SDMS), and standard LIMS functionality (NuGenesis Sample Management).[6]
