WYLBUR, an interactive computer-based text-editor for the IBM 360/65, has been utilized as a chemical/biological information-handling system. Its applicability is illustrated with chemical and biological data on the 3-benzazocines (6,7benzomorphans), a class of strong analgetics in which a separation of analgetic activity and physical dependence liability has been achieved in animal species.By providing an open-ended, completely user-defined format, a simple means to match character strings and retrieve data records, and a convenient entree to the batch computation stream, WYLBUR appears to be a relatively inexpensive and useful data management tool to study chemical compounds and their biological effects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
