Overview

JChem Base is a tool for the development of cheminformatics applications allowing storage and search of structural and non-structural data.

JChem Base can handle molecule, reaction, combinatorial Markush and query structural contents. JChem Base will integrate with a variety of database systems (Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2, Access, etc) with web interfaces and offers fast substructure, similarity, exact, superstructure and other searches.

Structures are stored in database tables, combining structural and non-structural data. SDF, SMILES, MOL, RDF, CML, and many other file formats are supported. JChem Base also supports ChemAxon’s Chemical Terms language to enable complex chemical queries, expressions and rules.

The system includes Marvin, a suite of chemical editor, viewer and visualization tools and graphical user interfaces.

Markush Search add-on allows the registration of generic structures into the database and substructure and exact structure searching in enumerated libraries without enumeration of library members. More information

FAQ



What is this JChem Base?
JChem Base is a tool for the development of cheminformatics applications allowing storage and search of structural and non-structural data.
What is this JChem Base good for?
JChem Base can handle molecule, reaction, combinatorial Markush and query structural contents. JChem Base will integrate with a variety of database systems (Oracle, MS SQL Server, DB2, Access, etc) with web interfaces and offers fast substructure, similarity, exact, superstructure and other searches.
It is also a basis of other ChemAxon products that handle chemical structures in databases: JChem Cartridge, Instant JChem and JChem for Excel.
Who uses JChem Base?
Chemists, cheminformaticians or anyone who want to store and search chemical structures and relatad data in a database.
Do I have to do programming for using JChem Base?
Not necessarily. Instant JChem, JSP, and AJAX are ready-to-use desktop applications. For customization, you may have to do programming.
What kind of additional software is needed?
Java Virtual Machine version 5 or later and a relational database engine (RDBMS) that will store the structures.
