Thermo Scientific develops and distributes scientific hardware and software solutions.
History
Some of Thermo Scientific's existing products are acquisitions, originating from the purchase of InnaPhase Corporation in 2004.[1][2]
On May 14, 2006, Thermo Electron and Fisher Scientific announced that they would merge in a tax-free, stock-for-stock exchange, with the merged company being named Thermo Fisher Scientific; the merger was announced completed on November 9.[3] However, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) ruled that this acquisition was anti-competitive with regard to centrifugal vacuum evaporators (CVEs) because "Thermo and Fisher are the only two significant suppliers of high-performance CVEs in the United States."[4] The FTC required Fisher to divest Genevac to settle the charges of anti-competitive behavior. In April 2007, Genevac was sold to Riverlake Partners, LLC[5], and the divestiture met FTC approval in March 2007.[6]
The Galileo ADME/toxicology LIMS[7] was quietly phased out sometime in 2014.
Currently, Thermo Scientific is one of the brand names used by Thermo Fisher Scientific. Other brand names used over the years have included Fisher Scientific, Chromacol, Nalgene, Cellomics, Cole-Parmer, Pierce Protein Research, and Fermentas.
Technology and products
Hardware
Software
Thermo Fisher develops, supports, and markets many software products for the laboratory, science, and health industries:
Darwin is a pharmaceutical-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) designed with "purpose-built functionality to align directly with manufacturing processes and give managers the information needed to make cost-effective decisions while still ensuring product safety and regulatory compliance."[8]
Nautilus is a general-purpose LIMS "that increases workflow efficiency, throughput and data reliability while simplifying administration, sample traceability and regulatory compliance."[9]
SampleManager is an industry-neutral LIMS that "increases productivity and improves the responsiveness and agility of labs across a wide range of regulated and non-regulated industries."[10]
Watson is LIMS for bioanalytical labs that "facilitates efficient study design and data transfer while streamlining assay validation, bioanalysis, instrument interfacing, sample tracking, results reporting and regulatory compliance."[11]
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:

Pricing
Source for pricing information is the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). As prices may change at any time, always contact the vendor directly to obtain a price list or quote.
Note: These are GSA prices, and as such they represent the lowest possible negotiated price. These prices aren't available to any entity outside of the Federal Government, and thus prices for non-government entities will be higher. If anything, they represent the lowest possible negotiated price. Pricing for Darwin and Galileo don't appear to be available at this time.
Nautilus 5 concurrent user license with Integration Manager base system: $43,841.44
- Includes five concurrent user licenses for Nautilus client server LIMS, one Integration Manager Server LIMS instance connection license, and three instrument connection licenses
Nautilus 5 additional concurrent user license: $7,314.66 each
- Additional concurrent user license to be added to Nautilus base system (INF-12005G)
SampleManager 5 concurrent user license with Integration Manager base system: $42,086.77
