parallel individual compound synthesis, solution vs.
This first volume covers: (i) combinatorial chemistry, (ii) combinatorial biology and evolution, and (iii) informatics and related topics. Within each section chapters are prepared by experts in the field, including, for example, in Section I: Coverage of mixture pools vs.. Combinatorial chemistry and molecular diversity approaches to scientific inquiry and novel product R&D have exploded in the 1990s! Annual Reports in Combinatorial Chemistry and Molecular Diversity Indeed, more compounds have been made and screened in the 1990s than in the last hundred years of pharmaceutical research.
