DiscoveryQuant

Since 2006, Sound Analytics has partnered with SCIEX to develop DiscoveryQuant, revolutionizing Drug Discovery.

Introduced in 2014, DiscoveryQuant 3.0 expands on the proven ADME software that enables scientists to significantly reduce LC/MS method development and optimization time for high throughput drug discovery (ADME) laboratories focusing on both small molecules and biotherapeutics. Scientists can now make better decisions about drug candidates faster, as DiscoveryQuant 3.0 software reduces tedious LC/MS method development time with a fast, robust, and reliable process that optimizes methods for hundreds of small and/or large molecules.

DiscoveryQuant 3.0 Software expedites the method development process from existing database information, automates on-column optimization, and easily analyzes and processes multiple samples at the same time. Supported on all AB SCIEX MS platforms (TripleTOF®, QTRAP®, and Triple Quad™ systems) and with the ability to seamlessly communicate with MultiQuant™ 3.0 Software, DiscoveryQuant 3.0 Software ensures success in high throughput drug discovery and development.

ADDA Autosampler

The ADDA system is a dual-arm, high-speed autosampler that provides ADME discovery scientists with the fastest high-quality sample delivery platform available for LC/MS. At eight seconds per sample in trap/elute mode, and with eight unique injection ports, the ADDA system is a comprehensive system designed for the Discovery lab. With the ADDA system, permeability, transport, metabolic stability and drug-drug interaction screening assays can be rapidly turned around with a single mass spectrometer system, saving critical time in the drug discovery process.

Sound Analytics developed the original dual-arm autosampler design in collaboration with LC/MS scientists at Pfizer. The resulting system allowed Pfizer to increase their sample throughput many times over. Sound Analytics has since partnered with Apricot Designs to commercialize the solution, offer the next-generation ADDA to pharmaceutical companies worldwide with installations in Europe, Asia and North America.
