ACD/Labs Launches a New Era of Analytical Knowledge Management in Support of Digital Transformation at Pittcon 2024

ACD/Labs

Cloud-enabled Spectrus Manager JS—the next application in the Spectrus JS family—will help R&D organizations enable analytical data access to all scientists. Multi-technique, vendor agnostic data, uniformly assembled with chemical context, is now broadly accessible to scientists for decision-support and suitable for machine access (AI/ML applications). ACD/Labs, an informatics company that develops and commercializes software in support of digitalized R&D, today announced the continuing evolution of their software to browser-based applications with the release of Spectrus Manager JS. The software will help unlock the value of instrument data for lab and data scientists, and help organizations meet digital transformation goals. Spectrus Manager JS provides scientifically intuitive querying of assembled, contextualized experimental results; and interactive access to LC/UV/MS, GC/MS, NMR, Optical, and other analytical data from all major instrument vendor formats. The capability to store interpreted spectral and chromatographic data with metadata creates a centralized database of knowledge; and data can be reprocessed and re-interrogated in the same browser-based application. Heterogenous analytical data is standardized to be machine accessible for data science applications, and available beyond ACD/Labs’ ecosystem. On premises or hybrid cloud deployment ensures the security of data and intellectual property. “We have been supporting R&D labs with tools to digitalize chemical and analytical data-centric workflows for 30 years,” says Richard Lee, Director of Core Technologies at ACD/Labs. “We continue to migrate and enhance our tools that have been central to scientists’ decision-making for decades to improve accessibility, ease IT overhead, and meet the needs of the lab of the future with an API-forward tech stack. Browser-based, searchable access to digital twins will empower scientists with on-demand access to the data they need to make decisions, eliminate barriers to collaboration, improve productivity, and ultimately accelerate innovation.” Digitalization projects often reduce analytical data to abstracted text and images due to its heterogeneity, limiting usability. Re-use is also difficult due to the number of software interfaces necessary to interact with the different types of raw data. While ACD/Labs’ applications on the Spectrus Platform already addressed these challenges, Spectrus Manager JS further eases data access, software deployment, and maintenance. Deployed in conjunction with Spectrus Conduit, ACD/Labs’ recently introduced low-code/no-code application for workflow automation, Spectrus Manager JS helps organizations achieve FAIR-compliance in analytical data digitalization while meeting their productivity goals.

Metal Energy Corp announces downhole geophysical work identifies two Brine reservoirs

Metal Energy Corp

Metal Energy Corp CEO James Sykes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share exciting developments regarding the company's SourceRock lithium brine project near Thunder Bay, Ontario. The project, situated in the Thunder Bay-Nipigon area of northwestern Ontario, spans an expansive area of 915 square kilometers, making it highly prospective for lithium brines. Sykes revealed that a downhole geophysical survey conducted by the company has identified two distinct brine reservoirs in drill hole SR-24-01. The upper zone, ranging from 151 meters to 165 meters, and the lower zone, extending from 474 meters to 520 meters, show promising lithium potential. Importantly, these reservoirs are believed to be stratigraphically continuous with a historic drill hole, BSW-06-04A, located just 5 kilometers away. Of particular significance is the lower zone, which exhibits fluid conductivities at least twice that of seawater, indicating the presence of highly saline brines. Scientific research suggests that highly saline brines often contain elevated concentrations of lithium, making them attractive targets for lithium extraction. Metals Energy Corp's identification of these brine reservoirs marks a significant milestone in the development of the SourceRock project. The company is now positioned to further explore and evaluate the lithium potential of these reservoirs, with the goal of advancing towards commercial production. As demand for lithium continues to rise, particularly in the electric vehicle and renewable energy sectors, Metals Energy Corp is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing market opportunity.

Grayscale's New ETF To Track Zcash, THORChain Price Dips, KangaMoon Soars

Kangamoon

Grayscale wants to introduce a new ETF to track privacy-based coins like Zcash. In other news, THORChain price has dropped, forcing investors to buy KangaMoon. KangaMoon has shown bullish momentum in the past week, skyrocketing 50%, making it the best coin to invest in. Grayscale Working on New ETF To Track Privacy-based Coins Like Zcash (ZEC) Grayscale Investments has told the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) its plan to launch a novel ETF, the Grayscale Privacy ETF (PRVC), focusing on the data privacy sector. This ETF will dedicate over 80% of its assets to companies specializing in data privacy solutions and blockchain-based privacy technologies, including protocols such as Zcash (ZEC). While PRVC will not hold cryptocurrencies directly, it will mirror the Indxx Data Privacy Index. Additionally, Grayscale plans to invest about 10% of its assets in privacy-centric protocols through ZCSH, Grayscale's Zcash Trust. Meanwhile, Zcash is one of the altcoins that has been banned by most centralized exchanges. Yet, the token has managed to maintain a bullish price movement in the past week. Its price has increased 20.7% to a peak of $29.26 from a 7-day low of $22.29. THORChain (RUNE) Price Drops 15.6% THORChain (RUNE), the native token of a decentralized exchange (DEX) that supports cross-chain swaps, has dropped into the red region. A look at its price chart shows that bears are leading the market on the weekly timeframe. They have pushed the price of THORChain down 15.6% from a peak of $5.88 to a low of $4.97. Nevertheless, THORChain RUNE joins other altcoins that are bullish on the monthly and yearly timeframes, with an increase of 23.1% and 191.7%, respectively. Therefore, the token still has a chance to clear the losses on the weekly chart. THORChain's technical indicators show that it is trading above the 50-day SMA ($4.60) and 200-day SMA ($3.47). As a result, analysts predict that THORChain will rise by 32.03% and reach $6.60 soon. KangaMoon (KANG) Stage 2 Selling Fast The crypto community's growing interest in meme coins with real utility has pushed investors towards KangaMoon (KANG). KangaMoon, a project still in its blockchain ICO, seeks to redefine meme coins by adding utility to them. It is building a community-centric space that merges Social-Fi elements with competitive gaming to reward participation and in-game achievements. KANG token holders stand to benefit significantly, with numerous opportunities to earn additional tokens through contests and competitions. These tokens not only serve as the platform's primary currency but also play a crucial role in its ecosystem, facilitating various transactions and activities. The blockchain ICO's stage 2 has already seen high interest, raising about $67,250, and its selling out rapidly where each token is priced at $0.0075. With the play-to-earn gaming market's value at $885M in 2023 and expected to grow, KangaMoon is poised for huge growth. Also, analysts are anticipating further price increases, making this the best time to get involved before it moves to the next stage. Conclusion While THORChain is grappling with bearish pressure in the market, KangaMoon has reached a new peak of $0.0075. Still, analysts see KangaMoon rising to higher heights in the coming weeks, making it the best coin to invest in right now. Discover the Exciting Opportunities of the KangaMoon (KANG) Presale Today!
