Thermo Scientific develops and distributes scientific hardware and software solutions.


History

Some of Thermo Scientific's existing products are acquisitions, originating from the purchase of InnaPhase Corporation in 2004.[1][2]

Technology and products

Hardware

Software

Thermo Fisher develops, supports, and markets many software products for the laboratory, science, and health industries:

Darwin is a pharmaceutical-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) "designed with purpose-built functionality that gives managers the data they need to make the most cost effective decisions that ensure regulatory compliance and the safety of their product."[3]

Galileo is a scalable, purpose-built LIMS "that allows bioanalytical laboratories to design, calculate and graph in vitro ADME/Tox experiments in a single application."[4]

Nautilus is a general-purpose LIMS "designed for the unique requirements of dynamic labs."[5]

SampleManager is an industry-neutral LIMS "for companies seeking a corporate standard for quality control operations."[6]

Watson is "a proven, purpose-built laboratory information management system specifically designed for bioanalytical testing."[7]
