ACD/Labs has been developing specialized software for chemical and pharmaceutical research for over 16 years. Their expertise includes multi-technique, multi-instrument data handling, knowledge management of analytical and separations data, chemical drawing, and prediction software for a range of chemical properties as well as spectra and chromatograms.

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.

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.

Characterizing metabolite structures and metabolic pathways is essential to understanding the potential biological implications of compounds in drug discovery.

BD Biosciences has developed and validated a new post-thaw recovery medium for human cryopreserved hepatocytes. The recovery medium maintains hepatocyte post-thaw functions while improving cell health and recovery. The newly developed recovery medium was optimized with BD Gentest™ human inducible cryohepatocytes for viability and recovery.

Dried Blood Spot (DBS) analysis is a very promising alternative to conventional whole blood and plasma analysis used in drug discovery and development or later in therapeutic drug monitoring with well documented advantages.

There is an increasing concern about the different response and effect that acute exercise induces on diabetic people and a novel insight into this effect can be performed using a metabolomic approach. Metabolomic is becoming widely spread used as a new and powerful tool for discerning significant changes at metabolic level. In this study we aimed to perform a non-targeted analysis and to identify metabolic differences arisen after 30 minutes of acute exercise in both young men suffering from Ty

Five years ago, the NCBI Probe database (ProbeDB) was established to provide a centralized archive of molecular probes used in biomedical applications. Currently ProbeDB contains around 10 million probes of 65 types including gene silencing agents, in situ hybridization probes, and probes for variation analysis and genome mapping. Presently, ProbeDB is the largest and most extensive database of this type available in public domain.
