Drug Discovery: Combining the Power of Computational Chemistry with Multiple Applications

Jan 16, 2023, 10:33 AM by

Computational chemistry, a branch of chemistry that applies computer simulation to assist in solving chemical problems, is a heated topic in the modern scientific community. Possessing a powerful team of experts in chemistry, biology, mathematics, crystallography, and pharmacology, Alfa Chemistry focuses on combining the power of computational chemistry with a variety of research focuses on supporting Computer Aided Drug Design, Thermodynamic Calculation, Fluorescence Spectrum Prediction, and applications that accelerate novel drug discovery.

 

In most cases, computational simulations are initiated for the identification of targeting sites on protein molecules that are most likely to bind to new drug molecules, thus creating reaction mechanism models that elucidate the kinetic and thermodynamic characteristicsHence, the use of high-performance computing to solve problems and create simulations generally requires massive amounts of data, said the Marketing Chief of Alfa Chemistry.

 

Devoted to integrating computational chemistry according to customers’ needs, Alfa Chemistry behaves well in the following areas:

 

Computer Aided Drug Design

Driven by advanced computer technology, computer-aided drug design is of paramount significance to the design of lead compounds and has achieved great progress in recent years. Novel lead compounds can be discovered through quantum mechanics, molecular dynamics, the discovery of structure-activity relationshipsand other basic theoretical data that are applied to the study of drug-efficacy models for enzymes and receptors. At Alfa Chemistry, scientists are capable of using a diversity of computational tools to accelerate the progress of drug design projects and, at the same time, remarkably maximize cost-efficiency for customers worldwide.

 

Thermodynamic Calculation

It is necessary to understand the thermodynamic properties of chemical reactions for mechanism elucidation and industrial practice development. With experts in fields of chemistry, life science, materials science, industrial manufacturing, and environmental protection, Alfa Chemistry is able to adopt computational strategies, such as the ab initio method, first-principles calculation, machine learning, Hartree-Fock method, and CALPHAD method, to calculate and reveal the essential thermodynamic property of individual chemical reactions.  

 

Fluorescence Spectrum Prediction

The prediction of fluorescence spectra through computational chemistry is a new field of study attempting to disclose a more systematic and inexpensive strategy for fluorescent dye production. Fluorescence analysis can quickly provide qualitative or quantitative analysis and has been used in multiple fields such as nanotechnology, biology, life science, display technology, food, and drugs. In addition, it plays a role in non-destructive, microscopic, chemical, and imaging analysis.
