Chemical Design Awarded FDA Contract

Chemical Design is delighted to announce the award of a significant
contract by the Division of Drug Information Resources of the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA). This will provide a client-server comprehensive
chemical information system integrated with ORACLE. To be used at the
Center of Drug Evaluation and Research, this system will give multiple
access to structure, reaction and spectra data (NMR, GC and JR), replacing
older MDL products. 

The contract features a S-user Chem-X license for use in a client-server
environment with PCs and Digital servers. In addition to using Chemical
Design's established chemical database technology for structure, reaction
and spectra searching, Chem-X will provide transparent read, write and
searching of data in ORACLE relational databases using TCP communication
protocols. This allows the exploitation of chemical and biological
information together rather than simply providing an archive facility.
Full documentation, training and support services are included. 

Chem-X chemical information software is proven for aiding new product
research. Indeed FDA joins major pharmaceutical organizations like
Rhone-Poulenc Rorer, Hoechst Marion Roussel and Glaxo Wellcome already
using Chem-X to link large in-house chemical databases with biological
data.
