Bio Spectrum
|BioSpectrum India Jan 2025
2024 marks Agilent's 25th anniversary in India. To celebrate this momentous occasion, Agilent announced the launch of two new products for the Indian market- Infinity III LC Series and New ProteoAnalyzer System, at the 17th edition of CPHI & PMEC India, organised by Informa Markets, from 26 to 28 November at the India Expo Centre, Greater Noida, Delhi-NCR.

Bharat Bhardwaj, Vice President and General Manager – APAC and Samir Vyas, Associate Vice President, Sales – APAC, shared more details about these new products at the event.
What are the unique features of the new products (Agilent Infinity III LC Series and New ProteoAnalyzer System) being launched in India?
Bharat Bhardwaj: This is not just for the Indian or Asian market, this is a global launch. At CPHI, we had a live product display where our customers could observe, and see the functionality of it, ask questions and get themselves comfortable with the new product. There are loads of features which come along with the products, but there are a lot of inputs from the customers which are embedded as we have built the products, whether it is in the form of efficiency, or in the form of productivities, with sustainability or even automation and connectivity.
With the introduction of the new LC systems, Agilent is revolutionising the LC user experience.
These systems significantly enhance task automation, connectivity, predictive feedback, and error reduction. The innovative built-in sample tracking, utilising barcoding and camera technologies ensures the elimination of sample mix-ups, providing users with greater accuracy and peace of mind.
On the other hand, the Agilent ProteoAnalyzer System brings added efficiency, versatility, and reliability, particularly in protein QC workflows. Automating the separation, data processing, and simplifying sample preparation steps streamlines the analysis workflow, which improves efficiency and reduces training and related labour costs. The system also can analyse a wide range of sample types, from crude lysates to purified fractions. It can analyse different sizes and types of proteins in a single run and consistently deliver accurate results, reducing the need for time-consuming and costly reanalysis.
