GALAS Modeling Methodology Applications In The Prediction Of Drug Metabolism Related Properties
ACD Labs
Analytical identification of metabolites for a drug candidate is usually a time consuming and low-throughput task and is performed only at the later phases of drug development. Therefore the possibility to predict possible sites of human liver microsomal (HLM) metabolism using in silico techniques would be a very attractive feature for any medicinal chemist.
Effective Use of In-Silico Tools in Lead Optimization
ACD Labs
Of all the challenges facing medicinal chemists in general, one of the most significant must be transforming an active molecule into a viable drug. Lead optimization efforts are guided by a combination of factors, such as potency, ease of synthesis, patentability concerns, specific synthetic constrains of the interaction with the target, as well as the lead’s toxicity and ADME properties.
New Approach for In Silico Genotoxicity Testing of Impurities and Degradants
ACD Labs
This study presents a novel approach to aid this assessment based on probabilistic predictors of mutagenicity in Ames test and binding to Estrogen Receptor, supplemented by a knowledge-based system of structural alerts.
QSAR Model of Regioselectivity of Metabolism in Human Liver Microsomes: Development, Validation, Comparison and Adaptation to Novel Compounds
ACD Labs
Analytical identification of metabolites for a drug candidate is usually a time consuming and low-throughput task which is performed only in late drug development phases. Therefore the ability to predict possible sites of human liver microsomal metabolism using in silico techniques would be highly beneficial for any medicinal chemist.
In silico Identification of Metabolic Soft Spots: Case Study Using ACD/ADME Suite Software
ACD Labs
Metabolic stability, determined in liver microsomes, is one of the primary assays used in early drug discovery. A key factor limiting compound half-life is the cytochrome P450 mediated metabolism. High clearance by these enzymes implies a higher and more frequent dosing as well as poses a risk for individual variations in exposure.
Analytical and Chemical Knowledge Management Software for Drug Metabolism Science
ACD Labs
Characterizing metabolite structures and metabolic pathways is essential to understanding the potential biological implications of compounds in drug discovery.

Understanding the Role of Quality by Design in Chromatographic Method Development
ACD Labs
Quality by Design (QbD) has become popular within the pharmaceutical industry and the FDA has cited a risk-based approach to drug development as a desirable state for the near future.1 In this state, more complete information and transparency relating to risk assessment will be made available for new drug aplications speeding the approval process, and preventing late-stage failures.
Ensuring the Quality of Registered Compounds in a Drug Discovery Environment – A Multidisciplinary Approach
ACD Labs
Lexicon Pharmaceuticals have demonstrated that a practical automated verification system using HPLC, LC/MS, and 1D and 2D NMR can be implemented in an industrial/pharmaceutical environment. This system has proven to be robust, and provides added value to compound collection integrity and quality.
A Self-Monitoring Quality Management System Incorporating Spectral and Chromatographic Data
ACD Labs
LIMS are useful in managing certain types of data for quality management and sample tracking. However, these systems are generally limited in the types of information they can process and store. A unique automated quality management system has been developed and implemented at a fragrance manufacturer to evaluate chromatographic and spectral data of samples during quality testing.

Optimization of the DNA Purification Protocol for the Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex and BindIt 3.1 Software
Thermo Fisher Scientific
Purpose: Optimal quantity and quality of DNA with the magnetic particle based extraction technology. Method: Thermo Scientific KingFisher Flex magnetic particle processor and BindIt® 3.1 Software. Results: By simple optimization of the nucleic acid extraction protocol it is possible to achieve a great yield of high quality DNA.
Data Acquisition and Analysis of 7-ethoxycoumarin and its Metabolites Using TurboDDS Software in the 500-MS Ion Trap
Agilent Technologies
The ion trap is a powerful tool for metabolism studies, due to the MSn capability for the identification of metabolites and structure elucidation of unknown peaks. The TurboDDS™ software on the Varian 500-MS LC Ion Trap eliminates the need to do multiple runs in order to identify metabolites. Once the expected m/z of a metabolite is entered into the method, the 500-MS will automatically look for this m/z and when found, will immediately trigger an MSn experiment.
