CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society that specialises in scientific information solutions, and MoA Technology, an innovator in herbicide R&D and related technology, have announced an agreement to embed chemical substance data from the CAS REGISTRY®, as well as related reference and property information, directly into MoA’s R&D workflow via an application programming interface (API). The agreement ensures MoA researchers have access to the most relevant, actionable chemical substance data within their daily workflow to quickly assess activity, enhancing productivity and expediting innovation.
MoA Technology, which was spun out of Oxford University in 2017 and received Series A funding in 2019, is focused on overcoming the global agriculture challenge posed by herbicide-resistant weeds with safe and effective new compounds showing activity based on novel modes of action.
Covering advances in chemistry and related sciences over the last 150 years, and updated daily, the CAS content collection includes data from journal and patent publications in over 50 languages. Sourced, curated and connected by a team of hundreds of scientists, it is the largest and highest quality collection of scientific information in the world including references, chemical substances, proteins, reactions, physical and chemical properties, formulations, bioactivity data, and much more.
