Subject: Miner3D enhances data visualization for chemistry

DIMENSION 5 has released the Miner3D Chemical Structures plugin, available as an extension to Miner3D Release 5.1. Chemical Structures generates 2-dimensional molecule drawings, an enhancement sought by chemists and other researchers that frequently visualize chemical data.

Chemical Structures in Miner3D are tightly integrated with the core of the software, meaning users can deploy the chemical information more easily, more often and more creatively, than with competitive data-analysis products. Miner3D chemical structures are also right at a user's fingertips, either as part of Details-on-Demand information, as Textures stuck on objects surface or as Labels attached to data objects.

The Chemical Structures plugin is powered by OpenEye Scientific Software's OGHAM, a toolkit that generates 2D images of molecular structures. "We have found OGHAM extremely fast and reliable, and we were impressed at how seamlessly the chemical depiction libraries were integrated within Miner3D", said Dusan Toman, CEO of DIMENSION 5.

Miner3D Chemical Structures plugin is compatible with most modern cheminformatics solutions. In general it supports the following molecule sources: Database BLOBs, SMILES strings, MDL SDF files and numerous other molecule file formats.
