Integrations
We are pleased to announce the development of a prototype for direct assay data upload from RSpace to ChemAxon’s ChemAxon Assay.
ChemAxon Assay is a modern assay data management software which forms an integral part of ChemAxon’s compound and assay data management solution running on the Synergy cloud framework.
The goal of this prototype was to allow direct assay data upload from RSpace to ChemAxon Assay without the need of any intermediate template.
After the creation of an RSpace entry and the attachment of an assay data file, a user may click the ‘Assay button’ in the RSpace UI to begin the assay data upload. Subsequently, the ChemAxon Assay UI will open and the upload will be viewable in the task overview page. Task details from the RSpace entry are automatically populated into the task details of the ChemAxon Assay upload.
The integration is described in the following video:
Going forward, ChemAxon and Research Space plan to create a deeper integration between our existing software, enabling our mutual clients to increase efficiency in the drug discovery process.
RSpace is an open-source platform that orchestrates research workflows into FAIR data management ecosystems: request a demo or contact us to learn more.

RSpace Transitions to Open-Source Chemistry ToolsOpen source
RSpace has transitioned to open-source chemistry tools in version 1.108, replacing Marvin with Ketcher for molecule rendering and integrating OpenBabel and Indigo for backend chemistry data management, ensuring full functionality and backward compatibility for users. This change aligns with RSpace's commitment to open-source principles, enabling more flexible development and potential community contributions to chemistry functionality. Users will experience a seamless update with all existing features preserved, including ChemDraw support and existing chemical structure compatibility. The ResearchSpace team is looking forward to expanding chemistry tools, with potential future improvements like advanced chemical calculations, database integrations, and enhanced data export capabilities. Customers can find the new tools active immediately in the latest release, with the team welcoming user feedback and suggestions for future developments.
