TOKYO and BUDAPEST, Hungary, November 27, 2018 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

According to the recent changes in Japan's regulatory affairs act, the Chemical

Substances Control Law (CSCL), Japanese companies that deal new chemicals in

small quantities (that is, less than a ton per year) must submit an application

for their new substances before manufacturing and/or importing. The National

Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE) rolled out their MOL file

creation system [https://www.nite.go.jp/chem/kasinn/syouryou/mol/] on 14th of

September, 2018. This system is used with ChemAxon's online chemical editor,

Marvin JS [https://chemaxon.com/products/marvin-js] implemented.

"We have decided to go with Marvin JS out of a single reason: it is really

simple to integrate into any web environment and companies can generate MOL

files easily," NITE representative says.

"Thanks to Patcore Inc, our exclusive distributor partner in Japan, we could

build up a strong presence on the cheminformatics market in the country. NITE's

platform allows us to stabilize our presence further by introducing our market

leading online chemical editor, the Marvin JS to a wide audience. We are

looking forward to working together with governmental institutions in Japan in

the long term," Ferenc Csizmadia, CEO of ChemAxon, added.
