Agilent Technologies Expands Life Sciences and Chemical Analysis Centre of Excellence in India

Agilent Technologies, Inc has expanded its Life Sciences and Chemical Analysis Centre of Excellence in Bangalore. The company also has also opened a Life Science application development lab, in an adjacent facility, to accelerate the discovery of life science analysis workflows. Together, the centre and lab cover 8,000 ft2, making this the largest Agilent research facility in the world. "India continues to be one of the most important markets for Agilent globally, with a significant presence of high-end R&D in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology," said Parmeet Ahuja, Country General Manager, Agilent Technologies, India.

“This is the first Agilent lab facility where development of application solutions, customer interactions and training will happen in parallel.” Originally opened in 2006, the Bangalore centre serves Agilent’s customers across India. Customers now have access to Agilent’s newest high-end products, including the 7700 Series ICPMS, 7000B GC-QQQ, 6490 QQQ, 6540 QTOF and the Agilent 1290 and 1260 Infinity LC. Additionally, all of Agilent’s core products, including gas chromatographs, liquid chromatographs, electrophoresis and genomics products, and mass spectrometry systems are available for use. Customers and collaborators can use the centre to evaluate how Agilent products perform with their types of samples and applications. The combined facility plays an important role not just in applications and solutions development, but also in customer education. Agilent application scientists engaged in pharma, biopharma and other life science applications staff the facility and work hand in hand with customers, thereby having access to critical samples and learning about emerging application needs. The Bangalore Centre of Excellence is modeled on the same standards as other Agilent centres, with an emphasis on Agilent’s global environmental, health and safety guidelines.
