Some CRD applications (MS Access-based and others) require that DSSTox SDF files be imported and merged into a central file before cross-file searching is allowed (see More on CRDs). Other CRD applications allow SDF files to be imported and converted to the application format, and to retain their separate database identities for cross-file searching. Which CRD application is chosen will depend on a user’s specific needs and preferences (see SDF Viewers, Structure Browsers & CRD Applications). See also Searching DSSTox SDF Files on PubChem.
