Welcome to ChemoTyper?
The ChemoTyper? application is a tool that allows for searching and highlighting chemical chemotypes (chemical substructures or subgraphs) in datasets of molecules. Typical applications are as following.
- Searching for structural alerts for toxicity in chemical structure files
- Filtering of chemical structures according to chemotypes
- Visualization and inspection of chemotypes
- Grouping of chemicals according to chemotypes, and
- Fingerprinting of chemical structure sets against chemotypes
ChemoTyper? includes ToxPrint?. ToxPrint? is a public set of chemotypes developed by Altamira LLC for FDA CFSAN’s CERES project. The ToxPrint? contains three basic subsets: generic structural fragments, Ashby-Tennant genotoxic carcinogen rules (1989), cancer TTC categories (Kroes et. al. 2004).
ChemoTyper? can be downloaded free-of-charge for public use.

CSRML Reference Library Implementation
The Chemical Subgraphs & Reactions Mark-up Language – CSRML – is a chemical XML language seen as a universal media describing the chemical (sub)structures and its query attributes, as well as the reactions and the transformations' rules. CSRML provides an open-source LGPL-licensed reference library that provides the generic I/O functionality for the CSRML documents. The reference library implementation includes modules
- to read and parse CSRML documents resulting in the programmatic objects representing the CSRML elements,
- to write CSRML objects, e.g., into a file, and
- to validate CSRML content at the basic level, e.g., for checking syntax and semantic features against the language definition expressed by an XML Schema document.
The CSRML standard is targeted
- to provide an universal platform of specifying the advanced substructure queries,
- to aid the developers to create GUI-based editors to input substructure queries in CSRML format,
- to support the community and allow the easy exchangeability of the substructure queries between different programs and databases, and
- to encourage the developers to create and distribute the CSRML extensions and software.
The CSRML reference library implementation can be downloaded free-of-charge for public use.
