Liquid Instruments lance Moku:Pro, une plateforme d’instrumentation définie par logiciel à hautes performances destinée aux ingénieurs et aux scientifiques

La nouvelle architecture fournit neuf instruments avec des capacités de mesure en temps réel aux laboratoires de recherche

CANBERRA, Australie et SAN DIEGO, 23 juin 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Liquid Instruments, un innovateur spécialisé dans les instruments de précision définis par logiciel, a présenté aujourd’hui Moku:Pro, une plateforme de haute performance pour les laboratoires d’ingénierie et de recherche.

Moku:Pro accélère la transition du matériel de mesure et de test à fonction fixe traditionnel vers une approche flexible basée sur les FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Arrays ou réseaux logiques programmables) en rendant les instruments de haute qualité accessibles au sein d’une plateforme intégrée évolutive par logiciel.

« Les chercheurs en ingénierie et physique font face à des exigences en constante évolution, avec des changements survenant selon des délais beaucoup plus courts que la durée de vie des équipements de test », a déclaré Daniel Shaddock, PDG de Liquid Instruments. « L’architecture matérielle compatible logiciel de Moku:Pro lui permet d’évoluer en même temps que vos applications, ce qui est tout simplement impossible avec les équipements de test conventionnels. »MokuPro-Digital

Moku:Pro contient neuf instruments puissants, dont un oscilloscope, un amplificateur à détection synchrone, un régulateur PID, un phasemètre, un générateur de forme d’onde arbitraire, un enregistreur de données, un analyseur de spectre, un analyseur de courbes de fréquence et un générateur d’onde pour s’assurer que les chercheurs disposent des instruments dont ils ont besoin pour caractériser et adapter rapidement leurs expériences. La plateforme a été conçue pour répondre aux besoins des chercheurs dans divers domaines, de l’aéronautique aux semi-conducteurs. La suite d’instruments de Moku:Pro est particulièrement adaptée aux applications photoniques, y compris la spectroscopie, la microscopie, la métrologie, la détection des ondes gravitationnelles, la stabilisation laser active et l’informatique quantique.

« L’informatique quantique repousse les limites de performance de l’électronique, de l’optique et du traitement flexible des signaux en temps réel. Nous considérons l’instrumentation définie par logiciel comme l’avenir des systèmes de test et de mesure pour l’informatique quantique », a déclaré Andrew Horsley, PDG et cofondateur de Quantum Brilliance, une société spécialisée dans l’informatique quantique full-stack travaillant sur la technologie des diamants à température ambiante.« Moku:Pro est un cheval de bataille du laboratoire et l’un des outils photoniques les plus polyvalents que nous ayons vus. »

Intégrer l’instrumentation à l’ère moderne
Moku:Pro fait entrer les tests et les mesures dans l’ère moderne, permettant aux ingénieurs et aux chercheurs de basculer dynamiquement entre les instruments plutôt que d’avoir besoin de plusieurs appareils autonomes. La technologie avancée de mélange ADC garantit que chaque instrument peut fonctionner avec une sensibilité optimale des fréquences RF aux fréquences acoustiques sans compromettre les performances de flexibilité. La connectivité complète via Wi-Fi, Ethernet et USB-C garantit une configuration standard et sans tracas.MokuPro-Digital 2

L’un des principaux avantages de l’instrumentation définie par logiciel est qu’elle s’améliore au fil du temps. Moku:Pro peut recevoir des mises à jour par liaison radio pour fournir des spécifications améliorées, de nouveaux instruments ou des capacités entièrement nouvelles. Les utilisateurs peuvent s’attendre à voir ces avantages dès le mois de septembre lorsque Liquid Instruments prévoit de lancer une fonctionnalité qui donnera à Moku:Pro la possibilité d’exécuter plusieurs instruments conjointement les uns avec les autres et les instruments échangeables à chaud à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur. Dans ce mode multi-instruments, les instruments peuvent être combinés et connectés pour former des pipelines sophistiqués de traitement des signaux. En septembre, la sortie d’un nouvel outil basé sur le cloud qui permettra aux utilisateurs de programmer directement le FPGA de Moku:Pro est également prévue. Grâce à cette capacité, les utilisateurs peuvent mettre en œuvre des algorithmes de traitement de signal uniques et créer leurs propres instruments personnalisés, ce qui permettra d’élargir davantage l’écart avec le matériel conventionnel.

Caractéristiques de Moku:Pro

  • 4 entrées et sorties analogiques
  • Entrée ADC mélangée (10 bits+18 bits) pour les applications à faible bruit et large bande passante

Vytelle Releases Public Feed Efficiency Database

KANSAS CITY, Missouri, June 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vytelle, with their network partners, announce the release of the Top 150 Proven Bulls. These high accuracy bulls have risen to the top of more than 81,000 animals of 25 different breeds and more than 262,000 residual feed intake (RFI) EPDs.

“There are two high-stake producer decisions that drive genetic progress in the global cattle industry: mating selection and reproduction method. By publicly sharing this list of feed efficient bulls, we’re able to assist cattle producers in identifying elite animals that drive a more accurate mating selection,” said Kerryann Kocher, Chief Executive Officer for Vytelle. “Producers can accelerate genetic progress to meet the global demand for high-quality and nutritious protein by utilizing the most modern hormone-free, in vitro fertilization to multiply offspring from their elite-performing animals.

The 2021 Top 150 Bulls list was compiled using data collected by Vytelle SENSE systems and Vytelle INSIGHT analytics services, formerly known as GrowSafe Systems. All tested animals include at least three generations of pedigrees and all animals must have at least a 0.6 accuracy rating on their RFI EPD to be eligible for the list. Each phenotyped animal strengthens the database providing producers insight to make profit-bearing decisions regarding selection for feed efficiency and performance. With the permission of each network member, Vytelle shares this information publicly to collectively advance feed efficiency improvements across the industry.

“Feed is 70 percent of a beef producer’s total production costs,” said Lisa Rumsfeld, Vice President of International Commercial Operation for Vytelle. “Whether breeders are looking to impact their direct feed cost, achieve marketing premiums or underpin methane emissions reduction claims with evidence-based metrics this database offers selection possibilities across breeds globally.”

Phenotypic data is captured through the use of Vytelle SENSE systems. The Feed Intake Nodes measure feed disappearance every second an animal is feeding, each time an animal feeds, to a 10-gram resolution. The In-Pen Weighing Position measures individual animal partial body weight and growth. It weighs every second an animal is standing at the water trough, which can equate up to 450 weights a day.

Centrient Pharmaceuticals boosting statins API manufacturing capacity

Rotterdam, The Netherlands, June 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

Summary:

  • Centrient Pharmaceuticals has started production at its newly built statins API manufacturing unit in Toansa, India.
  • With this expansion the company is doubling its production capacity of Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin, meeting the increased demand for its high-quality uniquely produced statins.
  • Centrient Pharmaceuticals’ statins are one of the most sustainably produced in the industry by eliminating harmful solvents, generating less waste, and a reduced carbon footprint of 32% as compared to traditional manufacturers.
  • Using backward integrated manufacturing methods, and dedicated production facilities, Centrient Pharmaceuticals is able to offer its customers security of supply.

Centrient Pharmaceuticals (“Centrient”), the global leader in sustainable antibiotics, next-generation statins and anti-fungals, announced today to have started production at its new statins manufacturing unit. With the building of its second dedicated unit on the Toansa site in India now completed, the company will double its statins production capacity. This will enable Centrient to meet growing demand for its sustainably manufactured Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs).

Statins are currently the most prescribed drug class globally for the treatment of high cholesterol and cardiovascular diseases and are among the top-selling drugs worldwide. The markets for Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin in particular, has shown steady growth in the past years, as a result of the continued global prevalence of high cholesterol issues, replacement of older generation statins, and genericization of the market.

Starting almost a decade ago, Centrient has grown today into one of the leading statin API suppliers worldwide, servicing large pharma companies around the globe.

Next to high-quality features like long shelf life and large batch sizes, the company offers security of supply to customers through its dedicated statins production facility and backward integration. Being backward integrated, Centrient is independent from external imports of starting materials. Its enzymatic route of synthesis and patented technology minimise the use of harmful solvents, generate less waste, and reduce the company’s carbon footprint by 32% as compared to traditional manufacturers.

The news of the facility expansion follows major milestones on statins that the company reached in the past years. In 2012, under the name of DSM Sinochem Pharmaceuticals, it was the first pharmaceutical manufacturer worldwide to offer generic Atorvastatin APIs under a Certificate of Suitability to the Monograph of the European Pharmacopoeia (CEP). Since 2014, it has produced the unique Atorvastatin APIs in its state-of-the-art facility in Toansa, India for third-party customers.

In addition, the company was one of the first three companies worldwide that started to offer generic Rosuvastatin APIs under CEP in 2016. Two years later, the first generic Rosuvastatin and Atorvastatin finished dosage forms were launched in Western Europe.

“With the doubling of our production capacity, we demonstrate our commitment to maintain our leadership position in line with our strategy and to continue supporting our customers’ business growth. Guided by our brand promise of Quality, Reliability, and Sustainability, Centrient’s Rosuvastatin and Atorvastatin offer superior performance in all three areas to the benefit of our customers and the environment.”, says Frans Vlaar, Chief Commercial Officer at Centrient.

Ground breaking of the new manufacturing unit started at the end of 2019 and commercial supplies from the new unit will start in mid-2021With the new manufacturing line being operational and doubling the production capacity, Centrient will be even better positioned to secure supply, meeting the growing demand from customers and helping to improve the lives of patients who are in need of these medicine.

“We are extremely proud that we have been able to complete this project in a timely way given the challenges of executing such a complex project in the midst of the COVID pandemic,” says Jim McPherson, Chief Quality & Technical Operations Officer. “It reinforces our absolute commitment to meet the expectations of our customers as a partner of choice – delivering reliable and secure supply using leading sustainable technologies.

Janet D’Addario, cofundadora da D’Addario & Co., e ex-presidente da Providence House, falece aos 72 anos

FARMINGDALE, NY, June 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Janet D’Addario, prodigiosa força criativa e filantrópica em todo o mundo, e esposa do presidente da D’Addario, Jim D’Addario, faleceu no dia 14 de junho em casa, cercada por toda a família. Ela tinha 72 anos.Ela faleceu de complicações de um câncer de vesícula biliar, de acordo com o marido, Jim D’Addario.

Janet Marie D’Addario nasceu em 10 de dezembro de 1948 no Condado de Nassau. Sua educação foi toda em Long Island: St. Brigid em Westbury; St. Dominic ‘s High School em Oyster Bay, e Nassau Community College em Garden City.

Em 1966, o curso da vida dela mudou para sempre quando, com 18 anos e principal cantora de um grupo folclórico, conheceu outro jovem músico em ascensão que se encantou instantaneamente pela sua voz terna e personalidade magnética. Jim e Janet D’Addario se casaram, cantaram e se apresentaram juntos no palco, e iniciaram uma parceria extraordinária que durou 50 anos, resultando em uma família, um legado filantrópico e a empresa de acessórios musicais mais prestigiada do mundo.

Quando D’Addario & Co. foi fundada em 1973, Janet usou seu talento criativos para conceber a publicidade da empresa, bem como o design das embalagens de todos os seus produtos. Durante o estabelecimento da empresa a visão e compaixão de Janet tiveram uma tremenda influência no desenvolvimento da cultura que orienta a empresa até hoje.

Ela ocupou vários cargos, incluindo de dirigente de Relacionamento com Artistas e cofundadora da D’Addario Foundation, que continua a proporcionar educação musical para crianças em comunidades carentes. Janet atuou como Diretora Executiva da Fundação durante 20 anos – ajudando a aumentar a conscientização da causa, produzindo concertos de música clássica em cidades de todo o mundo.

A Sra. D’Addario era conhecida pela família e amigos por sua incomparável compaixão e generosidade – por acreditar fervorosamente que as ações significam muito mais do que apenas palavras. Ela serviu 11 anos no Conselho da Long Island Cares, a instituição de caridade criada por Harry Chapin para erradicar a fome em Long Island. Como católica devota, ela apoiou inúmeras instituições de caridade católicas em todo o mundo, o sistema do Hospital Católico de Long Island, bem como a paróquia à qual pertencia, St. Brigid.

A instituição de caridade que ocupou um lugar particularmente especial no seu coração foi a Providence House, uma instituição de Nova York que fornece alojamento transitório para mulheres e crianças sem-teto.

“A Providence House é, de muitas maneiras, a própria personificação da minha esposa…que quando via dor trazia alento. Quando via a fome alimentava. Quando via pessoas sem-teto proporcionava abrigo. E o mais importante, quando Janet via alguém sem esperança, ela fazia de tudo para proporcionar as ferramentas necessárias para que a pessoa pudesse ter de volta a vontade de superar os desafios enfrentados”, disse Jim D’Addario.

A Sra. D’Addario atuou como Conselheira da Providence House durante 21 anos e como Presidente de 2004 a 2019. Ao longo desses anos, ela ajudou a arrecadar milhões de dólares para garantir que milhares de mulheres e crianças tivessem a oportunidade de ter um futuro mais brilhante. Seu trabalho inestimável levou Janet e Jim a serem nomeados os primeiros People of Hope (Pessoas da Esperança) em 2002 e a construção da D’Addario Residence com 43 unidades em Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.

Além do seu trabalho filantrópico, Janet era uma ávida foodie e pintora prolífica. Não surpreendentemente, sua maior alegria era reunir amigos e familiares para uma refeição caseira e uma apresentação musical ocasional por ela e Jim, bem como seus muitos amigos da área da música.

Janet D’Addario era filha de Robert James Carbone e Annabelle (Eannaccone) Carbone de Westbury, Nova York. Ela deixa seu amado marido de mais de 50 anos de casamento, Jim D’Addario, e seus três filhos: Julie (Pat); Amy (Marcus) e Robert (Gina). Ela também deixa oito netos, e seus amados cães, Dave e Blue.

Em vez de presentes ou flores, a família pede a quem que deseje prestar seus respeitos que considere uma doação modesta para a Providence House (https://www.providencehouse.org/support-our-work).

Janet D’Addario, co-fondatrice de D’Addario & Co., et ancienne présidente de Providence House, s’est éteinte à l’âge de 72 ans.

FARMINGDALE, État de New York, 18 juin 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Janet D’Addario, une force créatrice et philanthropique prodigieuse dans le monde entier, et l’épouse du président de D’Addario, Jim d’Addario, est décédée le 14 juin chez elle, entourée de toute sa famille. Elle avait 72 ans.

Selon son mari, Jim D’Addario, son décès est dû à des complications suite à un cancer de la vésicule biliaire.

Janet Marie D’Addario était née le 10 décembre 1948 dans le comté de Nassau. Ses études lui ont fait faire le tour de Long Island, ayant fréquenté : St. Brigid à Westbury ; la St. Dominic’s High School à Oyster Bay et le Nassau Community College à Garden City.

En 1966, le cours de sa vie a changé à jamais lorsqu’à 18 ans, alors chanteuse principale d’un groupe folk, elle a rencontré un autre jeune musicien en herbe qui s’est tout de suite épris de sa tendre voix et de sa personnalité magnétique. Par la suite, Jim et Janet D’Addario se marient, chantent et se produisent ensemble sur scène, puis entament un partenariat extraordinaire de 50 ans qui a donné naissance à une famille, un héritage philanthropique et l’entreprise d’accessoires de musique la plus prestigieuse au monde.

Lorsque D’Addario & Co. a été fondée en 1973, Janet a utilisé ses talents créatifs pour concevoir la publicité de la société ainsi que le design d’emballage de tous ses produits. Organisation alors naissante, la vision et la compassion de Janet ont eu une influence considérable sur le développement de la culture qui la guide aujourd’hui.

Elle a occupé diverses fonctions, notamment celles de directrice des relations avec les artistes et co-fondatrice de la D’Addario Foundation, qui continue de dispenser une éducation musicale aux jeunes enfants des communautés mal desservies. Janet a occupé le poste de directrice générale de la Fondation pendant 20 ans, aidant à sensibiliser à la cause en produisant des concerts de musique classique dans des villes du monde entier.

Mme D’Addario était connue par sa famille et ses amis pour sa compassion et sa générosité sans égales, croyant fermement que les actions signifient bien plus que de simples mots. Elle continuera à siéger 11 ans au conseil d’administration de Long Island Cares, l’organisme caritatif créé par Harry Chapin pour éliminer la faim sur Long Island. En tant que pieuse catholique, elle a soutenu de nombreuses œuvres de bienfaisance catholiques à travers le monde, le système de l’hôpital catholique de Long Island ainsi que sa propre paroisse, St. Brigid.

L’association caritative qui occupait une place particulière dans son cœur était Providence House, une institution de New York qui fournit des logements transitoires aux femmes et aux enfants sans abri.

« Providence House est, à bien des égards, l’incarnation même de ma femme… lorsqu’elle voyait des gens souffrir, elle voulait les soulager. Lorsqu’elle voyait des individus affamés, elle leur apportait de la nourriture. Lorsqu’elle voyait des sans-abri, elle leur offrait un refuge. Mais surtout, lorsque Janet voyait quelqu’un sans espoir, elle travaillait dur afin de lui fournir les outils nécessaires pour rétablir sa volonté de surmonter ses difficultés », explique Jim d’Addario.

Mme D’Addario a été membre du conseil d’administration de Providence House pendant 21 ans et présidente de 2004 à 2019. Au cours de ces années, elle a aidé à lever des millions de dollars pour garantir que des milliers de femmes et d’enfants auraient une voie vers un avenir plus prometteur. Son travail inestimable a conduit à ce que Janet et Jim soient nommés premières personnes d’espoir (People of Hope) en 2002 et à la construction de la résidence D’Addario de 43 unités dans le quartier de Bedford-Stuyvesant, à Brooklyn.

Outre son travail philanthropique, Janet était une passionnée de gastronomie et une peintre prolifique. Sans surprise, sa plus grande joie était de réunir ses amis et sa famille pour un repas maison, et parfois pour une représentation musicale aux côtés de Jim, ainsi que de leurs nombreux amis musiciens.

Janet D’Addario était la fille de Robert James Carbone et Annabelle (Eannaccone) Carbone de Westbury, dans l’État de New York. Elle laisse derrière elle son mari aimant après plus de 50 ans de mariage, Jim D’Addario, et leurs trois enfants : Julie (Pat), Amy (Marcus) et Robert (Gina). Elle laisse aussi huit petits-enfants, et ses chiens adorés, Dave et Blue.

Au lieu de cadeaux ou de fleurs, la famille demande à quiconque souhaite lui rendre hommage d’envisager de faire un modeste don à Providence House (https://www.providencehouse.org/support-our-work).
