Download DocumentResearchers link between PubChem and DiscoveryGate®
The National Institutes of Health (www.nih.gov) freely available PubChem database of small molecule data is now integrated with the DiscoveryGate platform.
"Now, researchers can immediately tell if information related to a specific chemical compound exists in the other system", said Steve Bryant, director of the PubChem project. "From DiscoveryGate, links connect researchers directly to the relevant information from PubChem. Likewise, researchers using PubChem can link to additional information in DiscoveryGate."
Dr. Ulrich Jordis of the Institute of Organic Chemistry at the University of Vienna sees immediate value in the linking. "This is great for researchers. Both of these tools (PubChem and DiscoveryGate) have become very important for chemists. The ability to know when information is available in the other system and link directly to it without conducting an extra search is a significant advantage in terms of time savings and locating relevant materials."
