RALEIGH,
NORTH CAROLINA -- March 24th, 2007 -- ChemZoo, Inc.
today announced the launch of their ChemSpider
Service (www.chemspider.com), an online
resource for chemists to search, aggregate and data mine publicly available
chemical data. At time of release over 10 million compounds are indexed in the ChemSpider database including the PubChem
collection and data provided by a number of other collaborators. ChemSpider has produced a value-added offering of the
publicly available chemical structure databases by adding additional predicted
property information generated as a result of their collaborations with
property prediction software providers including Advanced Chemistry Development,
ACD/Labs. By delivering access to an aggregated database collection of over 10
million structures as well as access to transaction based predictions of
systematic identifiers and physicochemical predictions ChemSpider
hopes to position itself as one of the premier open access websites for
chemists to access information. At the time of beta release structure and
substructure searching are not available but should be released within the next
few days. The beta release was timed to coincide with the Spring
