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]

Technology and products

NuGenesis 8

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."[2] The software platform includes an electronic laboratory notebook (NuGenesis ELN), a scientific data management system (NuGenesis SDMS), and standard LIMS functionality (NuGenesis Sample Management).[3]

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:
  • the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
  • the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
  • the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
  • the feature does not exist for the product.
A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
