The Compound Platform is a service facility to register, store, and provide chemical compounds from academic research institutions. The major aim is to support researchers with an infrastructure and the know-how to initiate cooperative projects. The service is only provided to non-for-profits projects and is free of charge. The Compound Platform is only a mediator of collaborations and compound exchange. We offer neither biological screenings nor other applications for chemical compounds. The service activities of the Compound Platform are limited to the support with the storage and distribution (including formatting), infrastructure and knowhow. Other support including synthesis of missing chemical entities or resynthesis of compounds is possible upon request and aims for research collaborations with the chemists working at the Compound Platform.
