Waters Corporation (NYSE:WAT) and Dotmatics Limited today announced an agreement to develop integrated advanced structure elucidation software to complement Waters time-of-flight (Tof) mass spectrometers and the Waters ® Synapt™ and MALDI Synapt High Definition Mass pectrometry ™ (HDMS) Systems. The agreement will focus on developing a fully-integrated solution for structural elucidation of small molecules based on Dotmatics and Waters MassLynx™ MetaboLynx™ Application Manager software.

The new software will give scientists the ability to comprehensively identify ion fragments by more accurately interrogating small molecule MS/MS, or MS E, data for discovery, development, and manufacturing analyses in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

"We are pleased to provide researchers with a fully integrated software package which is compatible with our innovative LC/MS/MS and LC/MS E data acquisition strategies that will allow scientists to interrogate fragmentation rich spectra and reduce the bottleneck in deciphering important molecular structures. The combination of Synapt HDMS System and this important collaboration will provide researchers with advanced tools for small molecule profiling," said Dr. Tim Riley, Vice-President and Managing Director – Pharmaceutical Business Operations, Waters Division.

“We look forward to a fruitful collaboration with Waters Corporation” said Alastair Hill, Director and CTO at Dotmatics. ”This agreement puts in place a framework to deliver novel software algorithms within the Waters MassLynx software platform which promises to result in huge time savings for scientists.”

The Dotmatics structural elucidation software is now available from Waters Corporation as an option for Waters MassLynx software. Additional information on Waters MassLynx is available at www.waters.com
