CAS is committed to
the global advancement of science through the dissemination of
scientific information to promote research performed by individuals
and teams of scientists.
To meet the changing
needs of researchers who rely on scientific information to perform
their daily tasks, Connection
Tables, in bulk, can now be ordered from Science IP.
Via this Connection
Table Service from Science IP, CAS will aid in the building of
project directories, to be shared by research
scientists working as a team.
Connection Tables are
how chemical structures are represented and stored in the CAS
REGISTRY database. Organizations whose research involves the
analysis of chemical structures may be very interested in acquiring
Connection Tables from CAS.
Science IP will provide
up to 200,000 Connection Tables for individual or multiple project
use within an organization. A Project is defined as work on a
specific question of scientific importance to the organization.
An example would be a project involving the design of JNK
inhibitors.
Science IP will track
and document each request to determine if a customer has reached
their Connection Table limit. Use of Connection Tables supplied
by Science IP is limited to internal use only and
subject to CAS Information Use
Policies. Redistribution will be strictly prohibited.
How
to Order Connection Table Conversions
Contact
Science IP staff or fill out the Request
form on the Science IP website. The form will contain
all of the terms and conditions for the request, including
data use guidelines.
The customer must provide
the chemical substance name or CAS RN, either of which must be
in machine readable form. The chemical name must match a chemical
name synonym found in Registry. An attempt will be made to search
for names which are not in Registry if the customer agrees. In
all cases standard Science IP labor rate applies to this work.
The following Structure
File Formats will be provided: SDfile, Molfile, SMILES strings.
Price information for
Connection Table requests can be found on our Price
List.
