PerkinElmer Clarus Nova webinar

PerkinElmer is promoting a webinar built around its Clarus Nova gas chromatography system, a new platform the company introduced at Analytica 2026 in March. (perkinelmer.com) Gas chromatography is a lab method that separates chemicals in a vapor stream so scientists can identify and measure them in samples such as fuels, foods, pharmaceuticals, and environmental tests. PerkinElmer says Clarus Nova is aimed at those routine, high-throughput labs and lists environmental, petrochemical, food, and pharmaceutical work among its target uses. (perkinelmer.com, perkinelmer.com) The webinar pitch centers on workflow, not just hardware. An event page says the session will present Clarus Nova as “one platform” with integrated solutions for routine operations in gas chromatography labs. (chromatographyonline.com) PerkinElmer’s recent launch language points to the problems it is trying to solve: sample backlogs, limited analyte coverage, and staff skill gaps. The company said on March 24, 2026 that the re-engineered platform was built to increase throughput, expand analytical options, and address workforce needs. (perkinelmer.com) That fits a broader sales pattern in laboratory instruments, where vendors increasingly package software, detectors, and service workflows as a single operating system for busy labs. PerkinElmer’s product pages pair Clarus Nova with chromatography software and describe the system as part of a wider gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry portfolio. (perkinelmer.com, perkinelmer.com) PerkinElmer says Clarus Nova expands gas analysis options with thermal conductivity detection, natural gas analysis, and total gas analysis configurations. The company also says the system is configurable at launch and expandable as lab methods change. (perkinelmer.com, perkinelmer.com) Independent trade publications have echoed the company’s launch claims, describing Clarus Nova as part of a 2026 instrument push tied to productivity and consistency in modern labs. Lab Manager reported that PerkinElmer introduced Clarus Nova alongside new elemental analysis and microscopy products in the same March rollout. (labmanager.com) The webinar itself is a marketing event, but it also serves as an early screening tool for labs deciding whether a new gas chromatography platform can replace older systems without disrupting daily testing. PerkinElmer’s events page says its webinars are designed to show best practices, product capabilities, and direct access to company experts. (perkinelmer.com)
