EZChrom Elite™ for ESA Chromatography Data System For Network-Wide Data Management

Reports the way you want them – EZChrom Elite for ESA streamlines the data-management process. It provides a number of standard reports and permits fully customized reporting, alleviating the need to use separate software packages to provide results in the format you want. Anyone who has used Microsoft's Excel® will be immediately comfortable with EZChrom Elite’s advanced reporting features. Using spreadsheet power to create custom reports brings a new level of control in formatting sequence summary reports and providing results that are meaningful and complete.

EZChrom Elite gives full control to the user when it comes to developing a custom method report. Add chromatograms and reports with a click of the mouse. The chromatogram can be zoomed and re-sized on the report template. Insert logos, chromatogram overlays, text boxes, or even video clips into your custom report. You have complete control over fonts, colors, orientation, and the size of items.

Graphical integration events – EZChrom Elite for ESA's graphical integration events make getting perfect peak integration easy. Chromatogram overlays and on-screen graphical integration programming provide an innovative, visual approach to data analysis. Manual integration tools like manual baseline provide added flexibility. You can even create specialized one-time integration events that are applied to a single chromatography run. Because all integration events are saved with the original data file, it is easy to re-create the integration, even if the method has changed.

Advanced system administration tools – EZChrom Elite's unique design provides network-wide data management and security. Because each user and group on the system is defined through the Windows NT domain controller, the integrity of network security and its shared resources is maintained. EZChrom Elite makes setup and maintenance of laboratory projects, instruments, and users easy through the use of System Administration Wizards. These Wizards enable the System Administrator to quickly assign user and group access to individual instruments, laboratories, or even entire buildings. Projects setup ensures consistent storage of data and method files. And command-level user access adds an additional level of control and simplicity.

Audit trails – EZChrom Elite’s Method Audit trail is a permanent part of the method and contains comprehensive information including date of change, user, change (including previous value), and reason for the change. The method audit trail can be viewed on-screen, or printed. Because the original method is saved at the time the data file is acquired, it is always possible to re-create the original results, even if the method has been modified. Likewise, the EZChrom Elite’s Data Audit trail includes time, user, activity (such as new analysis) and the reason and is stored as part of the data file. The audit trail can be displayed on-screen or printed and is a permanent part of the data file and tracks activities using the stored data file.

 

Electronic signature – EZChrom Elite fully complies with 21 CFR Part 11 Electronic Signature requirements when used in conjunction Windows NT or 2000. In addition to the display of electronic signatures on the report, the signature information (Who, When, and Why) is stored within the data file with a CRC checksum to prevent tampering with the signature record. This information is also logged in the data file audit trail.

 

Acquisition devices – EZChrom Elite for ESA provides data acquisition an external A/D with RS-232C and with sampling rates of up to 120 Hz.  EZChrom Elite for ESA also supports data acquisition using signals acquired from other detection devices with analog signal outputs.  Each EZChrom Elite system can support data acquisition from a number of different A/D sources simultaneously for maximum efficiency.

 

System suitability – EZChrom Elite for ESA's System Suitability component is integrated directly into the chromatography data system software, enabling you to set up customized system suitability calculations and reports along with your method for maximum efficiency and ease.
