FermWorks™ 2.3  
 

Reduce Time to Market

 
 

FermWorks provides powerful tools for process development and analysis of results with cross-network configuration and cross-reactor data analysis, putting everything at your fingertips from any computer station.

FermWorks time-saving features include recipe development and process control; data acquisition, analysis, display, and archiving; communication with instruments regardless of manufacturer; access from anywhere in the networked system; system security and tracking. The new version 2.1 adds more powerful analysis and control capabilities, as well as support for additional industry-standard instrumentation protocols, such as OPC and National Instruments FieldPoint.

The superior data management and efficiency of FermWorks reduce the material cost and time required for drug development, resulting in shorter time to market.
