​Efficiency Boost for Laboratories: Analytik Jena Integrates SPECORD PLUS Devices into LMS Systems

​​Jena/Germany, February 13, 2025 – Analytik Jena, a Germany-based manufacturer of analytical instruments, now offers laboratories with a high degree of automation and a large number of samples per day the ability to centralize and digitize their measurement processes in the UV/Vis technology range. The latest update of the UV/Vis device software ASpect UV enables the control of Analytik Jena’s SPECORD PLUS devices via an external Laboratory Management System (LMS).

​With the new SOAP interface module of the ASpect UV software, methods can be created, measurements performed, and results reported back to the system directly from the LMS. The associated analytical device SPECORD PLUS is thus fully integrated into the system landscape. This allows users to work in their existing LMS without having to learn and use separate device software. Users can start measurements flexibly from anywhere. The software module tracks all content and processes, thereby avoiding manual data copying errors between different systems.

​In addition, the current update of the ASpect UV software provides extended functions for kinetic measurements and significantly more comprehensive, formula-based data evaluation. With the new 21 CFR Part 11 compliance module, ASpect UV offers regulated industries, such as the pharmaceutical, food, or beverage industries, a further advantage: integration with the customer’s user management via Active Directory eliminates the need to create separate user accounts and passwords for ASpect UV.

​The SPECORD PLUS Devices of Analytik Jena
The dual-beam spectrophotometer SPECORD PLUS is a classic Analytik Jena device in the field of UV/Vis technology, which, with the help of the basic software ASpect UV and numerous specific tools, can perform a wide range of individual analyses in the fields of chemistry, pharmaceuticals, medicine, food safety, environmental analysis, life sciences, and more. The modular design of the Windows-based software enables intuitive and precise work, tailored to every level of experience and requirement. It serves the complete control, monitoring, and documentation of all processes of the spectrophotometer, including its accessories. Compliance with 21 CFR Part 11 and Pharmacopoeia Europaea 11 can optionally be ensured.
