Description

Now expanded to 2400 compounds, the components of the SPECTRUM Collection have been selected by medicinal chemists and biologists so as to provide a wide range of biological activities and structural diversity for screening programs with special emphasis on the de-novo assays emerging today. Such content provides the opportunity to evaluate drugs and biochemical tools with known biological profiles and, at the same time, explore the potential of novel structural and topographical diversity manifest in pure natural products. Each compound has a minimum of 95% purity unless otherwise specified.

Drugs are defined according to the name designations as set forth in the USP Dictionary of USAN and International Drug Names (2005, US Pharmacopeia).
