Well Search Results. Well Search Results, showing experimental wells for a library. The user interface for column selection is shown above, with the search user interface shown within the data table header. Note that in this case "MedChem Annotation" data from study 100002 has been appended as a data column. Similarly, by selecting available data columns under the "Data Headers (Other Screen Results)" column selection subtree, a user may compose a custom data table view that allows multiple screen results to be compared side-by-side. The resultant data may be filtered and sorted (for example, to highlight positives), and exported for external analysis. Additional description information for each well and its contents (compound and silencing reagent information) may be optionally shown or hidden, including various reagent identifiers. Note the available "Deprecated" and "Deprecated Reason" column options, which provide a mechanism for determining whether a particular well is no longer considered appropriate for screening (due to library creation errors, contamination, etc.). From the Well Search Results page, a user can navigate to the Well Viewer page for detailed information about the library well and the reagent it contains. In this example, a well from a small molecule library is shown, which includes facility-assigned identifiers, a graphical rendering of the small molecule structure, SMILES and InChi structural representations, molecular mass and weight, and identifiers assigned by third-party databases that contain compound data (PubChem and ChemBank).
