Virtual screening (VS) is a computational technique used in drug discovery to search libraries of small molecules in order to identify those structures which are most likely to bind to a drug target, typically a protein receptor or enzyme.

In vitro studies are performed with microorganisms, cells, or biological molecules outside their normal biological context.

Colloquially called "test-tube experiments", these studies in biology and its subdisciplines have traditionally been done in test tubes, flasks, Petri dishes, etc., and since the onset of molecular biology, involve techniques such as the omics.

Studies conducted using components of an organism that have been isolated from their usual biological surroundings permit a more detailed or more convenient analysis than can be done with whole organisms.

In contrast, in vivo studies are those conducted in animals, including humans, and whole plants.

In coordination chemistry, a ligand is an ion or molecule (functional group) that binds to a central metal atom to form a coordination complex.

The bonding with the metal generally involves formal donation of one or more of the ligand's electron pairs.

The nature of metal–ligand bonding can range from covalent to ionic.

Furthermore, the metal–ligand bond order can range from one to three.

Ligands are viewed as Lewis bases, although rare cases are known to involve Lewis acidic "ligand.".

Fine chemicals are complex, single, pure chemical substances, produced in limited quantities in multipurpose plants by multistep batch chemical or biotechnological processes.

They are described by exacting specifications, used for further processing within the chemical industry and sold for more than $10/kg (see the comparison of fine chemicals, commodities and specialties).

The class of fine chemicals is subdivided either on the basis of the added value (building blocks, advanced intermediates or active ingredients), or the type of business transaction, namely standard or exclusive products.

In molecular biology and pharmacology, a small molecule is a low molecular weight (< 900 daltons) organic compound that may help regulate a biological process, with a size on the order of 1 nm.

Most drugs are small molecules.
