Technology
Bioanalysis is supported by Thermo Electron Watson™ LIMS, a highly specialized software system designed to provide compliance with GLP and 21 CFR Part 11 regulations. Beginning with flexible study input, CEDRA uses Watson™ for sample management, analytical run planning, instrument interfacing, assay performance evaluation, data analysis and data reporting. Additionally, automated data transfer from Watson™ to Pharsight WinNonlin™ maintains Part 11 compliance for pharmacokinetic analysis and expedites the completion of PK/TK reports. Other export capabilities are also available to provide data in various formats.
Study reports are produced for easy incorporation into electronic submissions. Liquent InSight Publisher™ applies PDF-rendering technology to automatically compile source documents with varying file formats into one seamless publication. Additionally, CEDRA utilizes NuGenesis™ software for electronic capture of representative chromatography to meet industry guidelines. These technologies support Part 11 compliant data reporting from Watson™ and other software programs.
Robotics
CEDRA has expanded its sample and liquid handling capabilities with Hamilton STAR and STARlet, Tomtec Quadra 96, and two Tomtec Quadra 4 SPE units, as well as automation robots. These robotic workstations provide faster sample analysis throughput with high degrees of accuracy and precision.
