Waters India Private Limited, a 100 per cent owned subsidiary of Waters Corporation, USA has announced the installation of it's 50th Empower Enterprise, networked chromatography data system in India.

Empower Software, a powerful, and flexible, Chromatography Data System offers new capabilities in chemical analysis and separations science technology. Empower has been met by a groundswell of customer support, signifying it as an evolutionary step in chromatography data software. Market interest is attributable to a programme architecture that creates an intuitive user environment (by aligning product features with the skill level of operators) that enhances the workflow capabilities of the lab.

The major users are Ranbaxy, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Aurobindo Pharma, Orchid, Sun Pharma, IPCA Laboratories, Glenmark, BIOCON, Pfizer and a host of front running pharmaceutical companies.

"We are excited about reaching this significant milestone," Chandresh Jain, product manager - Data and Informatics at Waters India said adding, "Our claim that Empower Enterprise improves a company's regulatory compliance profile under a secure, reduced administration framework and increases overall productivity has been validated."

Empower Software can operate as a single point solution or within the enterprise-wide network, using a common server to store and process data. The combination of intuitive interfaces, database integration and industry-leading regulatory compliance features (e.g., audit trails and application security) make Empower Software the industry standard.

Empower is a flexible, yet powerful tool in meeting the challenge of productivity, compliance and ease of use. Empower Software represents a fundamental shift in CDS usability by replacing cumbersome add-ins (i.e., system components that provide added functionality through distinct installations) to a more scaleable switch-on approach. A single window construct allows the user to remain within the application, instead of accessing a range of applications using cascaded windows.

Waters Corporation, headquartered in Milford, Massachusetts is the world's largest provider of HPLC instrumentation, chromatography chemistries, results management software, and related support services.
