The ultimate desktop chemistry suite

With applications like ChemDraw/Excel, ChemFinder/Office, and E-Notebook, plus the rich chemical information content of The Merck Index and ChemOffice databases, scientists have unprecedented capabilities to develop and process chemical structures, models, and information, and to communicate their results to co-workers.

The ChemOffice suite in 1994 with the integration of CambridgeSoft's three leading chemistry applications: the ChemDraw chemical structure and reaction drawing program; the Chem3D program for three-dimensional graphics, molecular modeling, and electronic structure calculations; and ChemFinder, the chemically intelligent database program for creation, management, and structure-searching of chemical information.

ChemDraw/Excel adds chemical facilities to Excel spreadsheets, such as visualization of structures in spreadsheet cells, chemical property calculations on structures, and information filtering based on structures as well as alphanumeric data.

ChemFinder/Office is the solution to the problem of chemical structures locked away in documents.

It searches folders and disk volumes to locate structures and creates a database of them, complete with pointers to the source documents.

E-Notebook transforms the scientist's computer into an electronic laboratory notebook organized by projects and pages, with search tools to retrieve data and structures.

The personal version in ChemOffice boosts productivity for the individual scientist, while an enterprise version of E-Notebook enables research organizations to capture, share, search, and store valuable primary data.

Additional ChemOffice / Microsoft Office applications include CombiChem for Excel, Purchase for Excel, ChemDraw/Spotfire, and BioAssay Pro.

Among the database resources in ChemOffice are ChemACX, combining some 330 chemical supplier catalogs into a single structure-searchable database, and the companion ChemSCX with a similar function for screening-compound suppliers.

Chemindex includes the contents of the popular ChemFinder web site, as well as the NCI database of over 270,000 compounds with human tumour cell line and Aids screening results.
