LabNetwork Integrates with Reaxys to Offer Seamless Experience from Chemistry Research to PurchaseSHANGHAI and BOSTON, March 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- LabNetwork, WuXi AppTec's global chemistry ecommerce platform company, today announced a new collaboration with Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services. LabNetwork's nearly four million commercially available discovery and research compounds will now be directly available to users of Reaxys, Elsevier's premier chemistry database. The enhanced functionality means chemical companies and researchers, while using Reaxys, will also have access to both LabNetwork product availability and price information as a standard feature. The implementation deepens WuXi's integration with chemists' research and discovery workflows and expands exposure to WuXi ecommerce through LabNetwork. Through the integration chemical companies and researchers can now enjoy product quality assurance that is guaranteed by WuXi, greater transparency over supply chains, and lower costs for a range of vital compounds on Reaxys. Researchers will also reap the advantages of a wider selection as LabNetwork sources compounds from more than 2,000 suppliers across the globe. Finally, the integration means that researchers will be able to easily compare the cost of buying a compound versus making it internally, allowing them to save time, accelerate research and better allocate budget resources. "We are always looking for ways to support our customers to become more efficient and successful in their research," commented Dr. Thibault Géoui, Senior Director for Chemistry Solutions at Elsevier. "This integration with LabNetwork streamlines a process that thousands of researchers undertake many times a day. Speeding up these activities helps companies' commercialize their own compounds faster, meaning that customers in rapidly developing markets, such as China, will benefit in particular. Not only because they will have peace of mind about the quality of the product they are investing in, but by boosting exports as well as iproving in-country R&D." Dr. Xuanjia Peng, Head of LabNetwork, commented, "We're excited to work with Elsevier, a world leading research tool in the chemistry and life science industries, to better serve the global research community with more cost effective research chemicals to lower research cost. LabNetwork is committed to provide researchers across the world with unprecedented access to LabNetwork's commercially available compounds from a broad range of quality sources."
