What People Are Saying About ACD/LogD Suite

"Since 1997, when the infamous Rule of 5 was first chronicled, the use of physicochemical properties to aid in the discovery of new drugs has, with great justification in my opinion, mushroomed.
Having spent 24 years in the medicinal chemistry department at Sterling-Winthrop (the last five as co-head of the oncology drug discovery program) and 11 years practicing medicinal chemistry as an academic, I have realized a tremendous appreciation for the use of physicochemical properties in predicting/rationalizing biological properties of small molecule drugs. ACD/Labs software is an excellent and well-respected tool to calculate such properties."

"The prediction of the dependence of the hydrophobicity on pH is of particular importance in cases where the logPow value of dissociable substances was experimentally determined at pH ranges that are not environmentally relevant. For these cases the logD program is a valuable tool allowing for the calculation of logPow for the complete dissociation range of a substance."
