Adept Scientific announces the simultaneous release of ChemOffice 4.0 and
ChemDraw 4.0 from CambridgeSoft Corporation. CS ChemDraw is the accepted
industry standard for chemical structure drawing, with over 100,000 users
worldwide. The CS ChemOffice suite is the only integrated desktop environment
for chemists, featuring applications for structure drawing, molecular
modelling and chemical information management. Both packages are available
for Windows and Macintosh, as are the new Ultra versions of ChemOffice 4.0 and
ChemDraw 4.0, which include additional added-value programs to enhance
productivity in the chemistry laboratory.

The new ChemDraw Pro 4.0 is a major update to the world's premier chemistry
drawing software. Advances in database query capability, chemical
intelligence and publishing flexibility are the driving forces behind the new
release. You can use ChemDraw to communicate structures and mechanisms faster
and easier than ever before, whether in print or over the Web. You can easily
calculate important chemical information such as molecular weight,
empirical formulae and elemental composition. It includes a chemical syntax
checker, structure clean-up and automatic conversion of atom labels to actual
structures, and the ability to draw organometallics and isomer mixtures.
ChemOffice Pro 4.0 integrates ChemDraw Pro 4.0 with CambridgeSoft's Chem3D
Pro and ChemFinder Pro, to provide a complete set of software tools to meet the
day-to-day needs of chemists in industry, research and education. CS Chem3D
Pro lets you explore the three dimensional nature of a molecule for insight into
its behaviour. You can find low energy conformations with molecular
mechanics, observe molecular dynamics simulations and explore protein
domains by quickly identifying residues. CS ChemFinder is a database
management system for chemists. Its advanced search engine lets users access
and search databases of chemical information as well as organise and cross
reference data. Entering queries is easy: for text and number queries, simply
use a search form within ChemFinder; sub-structure search queries are
initiated from within ChemDraw itself.
Ultra Versions Give Added Value
Also newly released are Ultra versions of both ChemDraw 4.0 and ChemOffice 4.0.
These Ultra packages offer significant enhancements to the Pro products.
ChemOffice Ultra 4.0 not only contains everything in ChemOffice Pro 4.0, but
also includes CS MOPAC Pro for semi-empirical modelling on the desktop,
ChemInfo Pro for instant access to the most current chemical information
(including the Maybridge and Acros chemical catalogues, the US National
Cancer Institute's archive of compounds, current data from ISI's Index
Chemicus service and more), and CS ClipArt Pro for easy one-step graphics and
publishing design work.
ChemDraw Ultra 4.0 packages ChemFinder and ChemInfo for chemical information
management and the ClipArt module together with ChemDraw Pro 4.0, giving you a
structure drawing package that does much more than just draw.
An Office Suite for Chemists
"Our relationship with CambridgeSoft is getting closer all the
time," said Paul Bragg, Chairman of Adept Scientific. "With these
new products, we can offer chemists in the UK the most comprehensive set of
software tools on the market, a real chemistry office suite." Added
Product Manager Neil Chapman, "Chemists are really going to appreciate
the new functionality in Version 4.0 and the outstanding value that the new
Ultra products represent."
The programs are supplied and supported in the UK by Adept Scientific plc, 6
