DESCRIPTION

Ghose drug like filter implemented with ChemAxon’s property calculators

INPUTS

Dataset of Molecules

OUTPUTS

Dataset of Molecules

OPTIONS

Filter mode: INCLUDE_ALL, INCLUDE_PASS, INCLUDE_FAIL
Number of violations: the number of filters that are allowed to fail
Property filters for Molecular weight, LogP, atom count and molar refractivity can be specified as min and/or max values. Defaults are as specified in the original paper. Leave empty if no constraint is to be applied.
