UHPLC and HPLC resale agreement

PerkinElmer and LEAP Technologies have entered into a resale agreement for ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technology. Under the arrangement, LEAP will be able to incorporate PerkinElmer's proprietary UHPLC and HPLC technology into the company's front-end automation systems for mass spectrometry within the US and Canada.

The combined offering is intended to enable LEAP's biotechnology and pharmaceutical customers to derive additional insight into the data of their most demanding applications. Financial details of the arrangement were not disclosed.

The arrangement will include PerkinElmer's Flexar and 200 series UHPLC and HPLC and the company's Chromera and TotalChrom chromatography data systems software packages and associated consumables and spare parts. It will also cover LEAP's CTC LC-1, HTC and HTS robotic sample handlers.

In addition, as a result of this arrangement, PerkinElmer will be able to provide advanced automation solutions from LEAP into markets beyond that company's traditional customer base, including environmental, food safety and forensics.
