MolPort provides a number of ways to access data and catalog information on commercially available compounds: the MolPort website, the MolPort downloadable database, MolPort web services (API). With web services you can instantly check the current stock level information for MolPort compounds from your software application, Microsoft Excel, Optibrium StarDrop, Pipeline Pilot or KNIME nodes. A certain type of data analysis, like filtering by specific parameters, diversity selection, virtual screening or docking, require you to have full data locally. Full data download and…
Are you placing at least five building block or screening compound orders in a month? From emailing procurement for purchase approval and requesting quotes, to waiting for order confirmation and manually submitting POs to suppliers to align with internal procurement requirements. There’s a lot of manual effort required on your behalf! Punchout catalogues, also known as PunchOut websites, are a method that allows you – the purchaser – to buy from a supplier’s website from…
Chemical procurement of a large compound library for drug screening can be a more complex task than it first appears. The process can be time-consuming, requiring the right team and expertise, defining your compound library list, and handling supplier negotiations, logistics, formatting, and budget concerns. In this overview, we take you through the chemical procurement workflow for drug screening libraries start to finish, identifying the challenges at each stage and how you can implement strategies…
Designing a suitably diverse, yet specifically targeted set of available compounds to explore a new structure-activity relationship or validate a new bioassay is getting easier – with new smart SAR and assay design tools developed in-house or available from open-source sites and commercial software vendors. So far, so good. But where will you find these compounds and get them delivered, ready to run through your new bank of bioassay types? Surely that’s the easy part…
In response to customer requests, MolPort is pleased to announce the addition of solubility flags to its online chemical sourcing database. Quick links: Press Release Why we are doing this? Read in MolPort blog Customers purchasing large numbers of screening compounds report that typically 1-5% of the samples they receive cannot be tested, because they are not sufficiently soluble in standard solvents. This wastes timeand money, and delays the screening process. Several customers worked with…
Searching for suppliers for a few compounds at a time by name or structure is simple enough, even when additional criteria like amount required or purity are important. But what if you need to find suppliers for hundreds or even thousands of compounds – maybe to complete a targetted library for an urgent structure-activity relationship study, or to obtain a structurally diverse set of compounds to run against a new antiviral screen? And as well…
Authorized customers are already taking advantage of the MolPort API to programmatically access information from the MolPort database about commercially available compounds, their suppliers, packaging, prices, warehouse inventory information, lead times, and other information. MolPort is now pleased to announce the addition of two new MolPort API calls to help customers track their compound orders: 1. List Orders This compound API call returns all orders for a specific client, and lists them in descending date…
In order to dissolve a compound to make a solution of a specified concentration, you need to know its molecular weight. Most compounds are sold in a pure (non-salt) free form and it is clear what the molecular weight is: but a salt chemical compound is sold in a salt form, which means that you need to calculate the effective molecular weight that takes into account the compound to salt weight ratio. We therefore strongly…
Today MolPort is launching a new initiative with the goal of crowdsourcing screening solubility of compound. This blog post explains why. You are welcome to use one of these quick links for navigation to the right resource. Quick links: Press Release How to access data About the initiative One of the issues that screening compound buyers bring up most frequently is compound solubility. It used to be discussed at compound management conferences. Scientists and compound…
