Bruker to acquire PepSep.

Bruker, a firm that manufactures scientific instruments and diagnostic tests, agreed to acquire PepSep, a Danish company specializing in nanoflow liquid chromatography columns. Financial terms were not disclosed. “It is great to be part of Bruker as it allows the PepSep team to focus on innovation in separations for ultra-high throughput proteomics on the timsTOF platform. Matching separations technology that is ultra-robust and delivers the best sensitivity for high-speed TIMS/PASEF detection, with the ease of use of non-integrated tips was important, and we now can continue to develop chemistries to drive performance enhancements for 4D-Proteomics and 4D-Lipidomics applications," Peter Nielsen, PepSep Founder.
