Nonlinear Dynamics Enter Co-Marketing Agreement with Agilent.NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE Newcastle upon Tyne, city (1991 pop. 199,064) and metropolitan district, NE England, on the Tyne River. The city is an important shipping and trade center. The famous coal-shipping industry began in the 13th cent. , England -- Nonlinear Dynamics nonlinear dynamics, study of systems governed by equations in which a small change in one variable can induce a large systematic change; the discipline is more popularly known as chaos (see chaos theory). Ltd, a leading global provider of bioinformatics solutions, today announced a co-marketing agreement with Agilent Technologies Inc. to mutually promote and distribute integrated analysis solutions. The agreement is centred on synergies between the Agilent 2100 bioanalyzer 'lab-on-a-chip' platform and Nonlinear's TL120 DM software. Financial terms were not disclosed. The first stage of the agreement will see technical development to automate the export of electropherogram data from Agilent's bioanalyzer Expert software for analysis with Nonlinear's TotalLab TL120 DM for the purpose of varietal identification. This collaborative solution will enable researchers to import DNA DNA: see nucleic acid. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes. , RNA RNA: see nucleic acid. RNA in full ribonucleic acid One of the two main types of nucleic acid (the other being DNA), which functions in cellular protein synthesis in all living cells and replaces DNA as the carrier of genetic and protein sample data from the 2100 bioanalyzer for further relationship comparison, archiving and data mining within TL120 DM. Fred Strohmeier, General Manager of Agilent Technologies Liquid Phase Analysis Business, said, "Recognising the evolutionary challenges facing life science researchers to analyse, store and mine increasing volumes of RNA, DNA and assay data, we are pleased to be working with Nonlinear to enable users to discover more using the bioanalyzer platform. Our product portfolio also incorporates the applications of mass spectrometry mass spectrometry or mass spectroscopy Analytic technique by which chemical substances are identified by sorting gaseous ions by mass using electric and magnetic fields. , microarrays, gas and liquid chromatography. Because Nonlinear already has various technologies available for use in these markets, there is potential for further collaboration in the future." Will Dracup, Group CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Nonlinear Dynamics, said: "Agilent's reputation as the world's leading measurement company, coupled with the natural synergy between the Bioanalyzer and TotalLab platform, makes them an excellent partner. Users will benefit from the application of independently developed, industry-tested hardware and software combined for the first time as a powerful integrated solution."
