Mistakes in the QC lab come in many forms: forgotten samples, incorrect solvent levels, or not verifying correct system performance. These mistakes can lead to repeated procedures and possibly time-consuming investigations, compromising lab productivity and efficiency. When combined, the Alliance iS HPLC System and Empower Software version 3.8.0 provide several new features designed to reduce errors and improve productivity in QC labs. Join Neil Lander and Denise Heyburn as they provide an overview of the top three advanced capabilities unlocked by combining the intuitively simple Alliance iS HPLC System with the latest version of Empower Software.
