Welcome to MCI
The Marine compounds Index (MCI) is a freely available electronic database containing detailed information about small molecules metabolites found in the marine algae. It is intended to be used for applications in metabolomics, chemoinformatics, and general education. The database is designed to contain or link three kinds of data: 1) chemical data, 2) geographical origin, and 3) biological data such as cytotoxic activity.
Each Algal entry contains more than 27 data fields and all data are taken from original research articles. Many data fields are hyperlinked to other databases like Pubchem, Chemspider and Pubmed. The Database can be searched using the accession number, SMILES, InChI, compound name or seaweed name. The search engine is provided by SWMD server. The database contains 441 metabolite entries from red, green and brown marine algae.
