Symyx has released Symyx Notebook 6.3, an enterprise electronic lab notebook (ELN) that is said to support many scientific disciplines.
Previous versions of Symyx Notebook had focused on biology, analytical and synthetic chemistry - v6.3 rounds out the offering by adding parallel chemistry support for synthetic and medicinal chemistry.
Symyx Notebook is said to enable researchers to manage experimental workflows, capture intellectual property and share knowledge to gain scientific insight - all while optimising time and resources in the laboratory.
According to the company, Symyx Notebook 6.3 improves support for synthetic chemists, analytical chemists and biologists in regulated and non-regulated environments by offering capabilities including support for parallel synthesis, library enumeration, searching of enumerated reactions and solid-phase organic synthesis.
Features of v6.3 include: support for in-depth chemical representation combined with highly configurable library enumeration capabilities; expansion of exact and substructure searching, which permits the retrieval of fractional salts and hydrates; enablement of solid-phase organic synthesis through the implementation of loading units and calculations; and Quickdata capabilities that speed information capture with enhanced procedure editing and standard phrase lists for procedural text.
