The MLSMR project requires
extensive data tracking. BioFocus® DPI, a
Galapagos company, created ComIT (Compound
Inventory Tracking), an Oracle based
application, to track, manage, and report
all sample operations from ordering from our
suppliers through shipment to the screening
centers.
ComIT, a customization of
CambridgeSoft's Inventory Enterprise
application, coordinates what physically happens in
the repository and communicates it to users inside
and outside BioFocus DPI. Repository workers
access ComIT by a standard web browser
interface and use the application to
automatically guide and record their work.
ComIT monitors the inventory of each compound
so that depleted samples can be re-supplied or
re-synthesized.
MLSMR deposits the structures of compounds
accepted into the repository into PubChem,
NCBI's database of small organic molecules and their
biological activity. The MLSCN screening centers will
link to these substances when depositing their HTS
data with PubChem.
