patent application related to its REVELERIS®
flash chromatography system. The notice refers to the use of
Evaporative Light Scattering Detection (ELSD) with flash
chromatography (Publication No. US 2010/0238444 A1). The
allowed claims cover Grace's innovative RevealX™ dual
detection technology, a key part of the
REVELERIS® flash chromatography system.
"This U.S. Patent Allowance is an important milestone for
Grace, confirming our technological leadership in the field
of flash chromatography," said Gregory Poling, President and
Chief Operating Officer of W. R. Grace & Co. "Our technology
has radically advanced the capabilities of flash
chromatography within a short time span, resulting in

providing many benefits to customers. Multiple ultraviolet
signals, as well as ELSD, can be processed simultaneously,
ensuring that even hard-to-detect compounds are identified.
An advanced algorithm ensures the collection of highly pure
fractions, delivering exceptional first-pass yields.
The award winning REVELERIS® flash
chromatography system and Grace's leading edge silica
cartridges are used by most leading pharmaceutical companies
in the world. Grace has combined its expertise as the world's
