Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute and Analiza, Inc. Add Large Volume of Compound Solubility Data to PubChem to Assist Future Drug Discovery Efforts

CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A collaborative project between Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute at Lake Nona and Analiza, Inc. has yielded aqueous solubility data for over 20,000 compounds in the NIH Molecular Library within the first 90 days of screening and characterization. The early results of the analysis are proving to be enlightening, with almost 30% of the compounds screened having low solubility – a key factor in disqualifying compounds early in the drug development process, saving later stage time and expense. The reported measurements are now part of PubChem, the largest publicly available database of bioactive molecules.
