PerkinElmer launches ChemDraw for iPad

The ChemDraw and Chem3D packages from PerkinElmer have been adapted for the iPad and are now available from the App Store. They represent the first of a series of mobile applications that the company is developing to help scientists while they are on the move.

Both applications are integrated with the Flick-to-Share technology which allows users to share their data across a number of mobile platforms, eliminating the need for multi-step emails and cloud storage services.

Initial user comments on the App Store are positive, pointing out its intuitive nature and ease of use.
