ADDITIONAL INFO

This approach predicts a BBB permeation score of a molecule using a multi-parametric scoring function.

This work is based on Gupta et. al., The Blood−Brain Barrier (BBB) Score J. Med. Chem. 2019, 62, 9824−9836. doi:10.1021/acs.jmedchem.9b01220

The score is evaluated using a complex function using as parameters:

  • number or aromatic rings
  • heavy atom count
  • molecular weight
  • H-bond donors and acceptors
  • Topological polar surface area
  • pKa

For more details see the paper.

Properties are calculated using the ChemAxon property calculators.
