Waters Corporation USA, leaders in the field of Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectroscopy has crossed Rs. 100 crore turnover mark in India during the last financial year.

KV Venugopalan, president, Waters (India) Pvt Ltd said, "After we became a 100 per cent owned subsidiary of Waters Corporation in 1998, Waters business in India has been growing at more than 50 per cent every year".

Waters has sold more than 500 systems last year and the prospects for the future looks very exciting. "The state-of-the-art-instrumentation, software and chemistry products with outstanding customer support organization are what differentiate Waters from the competition. That is why most of the fastest growing research based pharmaceutical companies in India are our customers" stated Venugopal.

Waters Corporation has introduced a next-generation liquid chromatograph Waters Acquity Ultra Performance LC System which is a first of its kind LC system designed to take full advantage of the potential of novel sub two-micron particles to give scientists chromatographic run times that are up to 9X shorter than today's fastest HPLC systems, up to 2X better peak capacity or resolution, 3X better routine sensitivity, and, generally speaking, more information from a single run than anything today's HPLC systems can provide.

The Waters Acquity UPLC System is for scientists, methods developers, researchers, mass spectrometrists, chromatographers and anyone seeking a productivity edge in the laboratory and eager to investigate and adopt technology that will become the standard of separation science in the not-too-distant future, he informed.

Acquity System is a new, patented 1.7 micron hybrid particle chemistry matched with instrumentation hardware and software that promises scientists significant benefits over today's HPLC systems equipped with standard five-micron particle chemistries.

The company is introducing a new productivity-enhancing Waters eLab Notebook Software. The product is for any scientist currently keeping paper notebooks to record scientific information. It is also for multinational organizations and their IT professionals who are keen to protect intellectual property, improving organizational efficiency, ensuring adherence to good lab notebook practices.
