Proteomika S.L. chooses Phoretix 2D Evolution as their 2DGE Image Analysis Solution

Nonlinear Dynamics Ltd, (Newcastle upon Tyne, UK) a leading provider of bioinformatics solutions, announced that Proteomika S.L. (Barcelona, Spain) has chosen Phoretix 2D Evolution as the software solution to provide a more automated approach to 2DGE image analysis within its pharmacoproteomics and toxicoproteomics programs and services.

After extensive testing of alternative 2D image analysis solutions on the market, Proteomika has chosen Nonlinear's Phoretix 2D Evolution software. Dr Simon Santa Cruz summarised the decision:

"As both our in-house and contract proteomics projects have continued to grow, we identified image analysis of 2D gels as an important limitation to our productivity. We needed to find a cost effective solution that would increase our throughput and reduce operator subjectivity. It was also important that it was delivered by a partner who could provide the training and support package to help us achieve our objectives and growth model as quickly and easily as possible. Phoretix 2D Evolution and Nonlinear Dynamics have fulfilled all of these requirements."

Phoretix 2D Evolution is the most recent addition to Nonlinear Dynamics' 2D range. Phoretix 2D Evolution extends the analytical processing power, offering a professional solution to routine 2D analysis by increasing throughput and decreasing user intervention pre-analysis, enabling users to advance their research with confidence.

John Spreadbury, Group Sales and Marketing Director of Nonlinear Dynamics, said, "I am very pleased that Proteomika has chosen Phoretix 2D Evolution. This is yet another success for our latest 2D analysis product within proteomics research. It illustrates that we are delivering an extensive range of analysis products that add real value to the varied efforts of all those scientists using 2D technologies."
