A STRUCTURAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHIC DATA BASE FOR COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES

Objective


The objective was the development of the Complex Carbohydrate Structural Database (CCSD) and the database management program CarbBank which will give systematic access to published carbohydrate structures. Collection of structural data is performed manually by a systematic survey of the existing carbohydrate literature, relevant citations are obtained by computer assisted searching on the Chemical Abstract CAS ONLINE service and other important data (for example a compressed structural formula, optical rotation, nuclear magnetic resonance data, melting point) are added manually. The first version of the CCSD and CarbBank released in October 1989 has been revised and updated, the latest version (December 1990) now contains 3888 complex carbohydrate structures. A contract has been negotiated between the European partners, the American collaborators in Georgia and Chemical Abstract services, which has resulted in free exchange of data and thereby securing a much more complete database.
Correlation of structures with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic data has been facilitated by creating a computer program, which allows easy connection between structure and data. The program is available as a test version.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Data not available

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
