eurocarb

The EuroCarb project is concerned with the creation and maintainance of software and tools for the submission, retrieval and scientific analysis of carbohydrate structures and primary experimental data.

About us

Eurocarb is an EU-funded initiative for the creation of software and standards for the systematic collection of carbohydrate structures and their experimental data.

The project comprises the following: 1. The EuroCarbDB database of carbohydrate structures and experimental data, initially mass-spectrometry, HPLC and NMR data, with well-defined extension points for other techniques. 1. The EuroCarbDB web application UI to the database, which allows browsing, searching and contribution of structures and data to the database. 1. A suite of various tools and associated applications for researchers for the anaylsis and interpretation of carbohydrate structures: * GlycanBuilder, a Java applet for drawing glycan structures * GlycoWorkbench, a standalone Java application for semi-automated analysis and annotation of glycan mass spectra * GlycoPeakfinder, a webapp for calculating glycan compositions from mass data

The online version of EuroCarbDB is hosted by the European Institute of Bioinformatics. EuroCarbDB is a Research Infrastructure Design Study Funded by the 6th Research Framework Program of the European Union (RIDS Contract number 011952).
