TELESCOPE INNOVATIONS AND SHIMADZU SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS INITIATE TECHNOLOGY PARTNERSHIP

Telescope Innovations Corp. is engaged in a technology integration partnership with Shimadzu Scientific Instruments Inc. Shimadzu is a global leader in analytical instrumentation for chemistry research and development, and the partners aim to integrate Telescope's flagship product, DirectInject-LC, with Shimadzu's high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems.

HPLC is a gold-standard analysis technique in process chemistry, enabling researchers to separate and analyze each component in a chemical mixture. DirectInject-LC dramatically amplifies the power of this technology by automatically sampling and preparing reactions for real-time injection into HPLC instruments. Thus, full reaction profiles become readily accessible, providing rich chemical understanding, impurity profiling and fast optimization strategies. This type of data-rich experimentation represents a massive competitive advantage to the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.

"Ensuring compatibility with the Shimadzu ecosystem will broaden the adoption potential of DirectInject-LC, which is already compatible with several HPLC instruments like the Agilent and Waters systems," explained Jason Hein, chief technology officer of Telescope. "We're excited to continue showcasing the value of DirectInject-LC and to partner with the Shimadzu team, who bring internationally recognized expertise in chemistry analysis instruments."

"Integrating Telescope's game-changing DirectInject-LC technology with our industry-leading UHPLC system opens up a wealth of opportunities for customers in the process analytical technology (PAT) market," commented Tairo Ogura, director of the R&D (research and development) centre at Shimadzu Scientific Instruments. "We're eager to drive this partnership forward and excited about showcasing the potential of this powerful platform."

To highlight this partnership, Telescope and Shimadzu will jointly present this technology integration at the 2024 meeting of the International Foundation Process Analytical Chemistry (IFPAC). This conference, from March 3 to March 6 2024, will bring together world-class and industry expertise in process analytical technology and continuous manufacturing and process control applications for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical and related industries.
