Infotox is different from MCASE/CASETOX in several ways. Infotox is an online internet interface to our software. The user enters the structure of a test chemical, and chooses from a list of available databases. After submitting the chemical, the user receives a detailed output about the biological activity of the chemical. The Infotox user is not able to find out characteristics of the database. MCASE and CASETOX are software packages which are purchased and used at your work site. Using MCASE or CASETOX a user can create a list of chemicals in the database, a list of biophores in the database, and a list of modulators associated with each biophore. Also, the user can create a list of molecules that contain a particular biophore or other fragment. None of these things are possible for users with an Infotox online account.
