About CRAIS Checker
CRAIS Checker is a system to evaluate whether a given compound is a controlled substance, based on chemical structure. Pharmaceutical R&D routinely uses very large numbers of compounds which need to be handled in compliance with current laws and regulations; however detection of the controlled substance is not straightforward.
