Solutions for library encoding to create collections of discrete compounds.

The ability to design, produce, analyze, and manage high quality combinatorial libraries depends on the encoding strategy applied. Several recent advances in encoding technology have extended the range of library design parameters. Enhancements of established techniques have made them more robust and versatile, while additional new and creative encoding concepts have been introduced. With better options now available, combinatorial chemists can more easily select an encoding technique to match resources, library design, and compound management criteria.
