Quantitative Structure–Activity Relationship (QSAR) models are regression or classification models used in the toxicological sciences.Generally, the establishment of (Q)SAR model consists of the following five steps:
QSAR approaches are usually applied to assess health toxicity or ecotoxicity of new/increased level of impurities existed in a new source of technical materials. The predicted toxicities, especially for genotoxicity, obtained by using QSAR are important data for assessing whether the new active ingredient is toxicological equivalent when compared to its reference source, and the data are required by an increasing number of countries, regions or organizations including the EU, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Russia, Argentina, etc.
REACH24H offers the best in-silico tools and scientific expertise, which when combined, helps overall assessment of (eco)toxicity, environmental fate, physico-chemical property of impurities or target compounds.
Publicly available tools: OECD QSAR Toolbox, Toxtree, T.E.S.T, VEGA hub, OPERA, ECOSAR, EPI SuiteTM, etc.
Commercial tools: Derek NexusTM, Sarah NexusTM, Case Ultra, etc.
Cheminformatic tools: ChemDraw, RDkit, ChemMine, AMBIT, CPDB/LCDB, etc.
