BioAssay Ultra Upgrade (10-User Lab Pack)

BioAssay manages data from biological experiments. It is designed for chemists and biologists working on pharmaceutical, drug or gene research and is of particular value for researchers performing in vivo experiments with complex models. Integrate chemical and biological data. Query by structure or text with ChemFinder and set up Excel templates for reporting and graphing. BioAssay is available for the Windows platform only.

BioAssay Ultra adds BioDraw and BioViz to what you get with BioAssay Pro.

Applications Included:

ChemFinder Std 9.0

BioAssay Ultra 9.0

BioViz/Office 9.0

BioDraw Pro 9.0

Features Included:

BioViz/Office

The bio visualization add-on to ChemFinder allows you to create graphical representations of ChemFinder databases in order to identify trends and correlations within subsets of your data.

Drawing Elements / BioDraw

Common pathway elements such as membranes, DNA, enzymes, receptors, and reaction arrows.

Sharing Data / BioDraw

Export data to a Microsoft Office application, save as an image file or use the BioDraw viewer.

Annotations / BioDraw

Store annotations for each element in your drawing. Annotation data ranges from manually entered text to attached documents, literature references, or links.

Flexible Assay Management / BioAssay

Even for the most basic protein assays, the independent and dependent variables used by the biologist to quantify efficacy can vary substantially from assay to assay. The underlying requirement that follows from this variability is for a flexible data management system that can adapt quickly to different assays and biological models. With BioAssay, researchers or IT support staff simply define the observables and calculations that make up the assay. The database does the rest. Users can set up unlimited levels of drill-down.

User Friendly Data Retrieval & Analysis / BioAssay

This allows users, for example, to click an IC50 and see a graph of percent inhibition versus concentration. Click again, and the software displays the original triplicate results, with outliers marked. The software even supports complex in vivo models.

Automated Calculations & Curve Fitting / BioAssay

Once the database is configured for an assay, calculations are performed automatically whenever new data is entered or imported. Calculations can be quite complex, built from multi-step procedures. For an IC50 assay in triplicate, the software can average your triplicate results, take control values into account, and perform a sigmoidal dose-response curve fit according to your specifications. It is now as easy to do for 10,000 compounds as it is for ten.

Find Structure-Activity Relationships / BioAssay

Components of the ChemOffice product line provide additional ways to analyze structural and biological data and perform structure searches. ChemFinder makes it easy to create customized forms for viewing data. Users can export data to Excel or Spotfire for further analysis and reporting.
