XTractor Premium – Semantic Search over manually indexed data

Searching through the vast repositories of biomedical literature, has been a long standing problem.  XTractor Premium comes with a highly advanced semantic search feature which enables you to mine the most relevant information in matter of seconds. In comparison to similar application which guarantee results – XTractor Premium is far more effective in addressing scientific problems. We have multiple ontologies integrated into our semantic search panel, so that your search time is reduced.

EG: You could ask questions like:

Which are the GPCR class I receptors that are involved in colon cancer

OR which of the anti asthmatic drugs are also used for treatment diabetes type 2.

The search retrieves you the most significant results- due to the fact that XTractor relies on manual annotation of data. Manual annotation enables us to reduce the false positive mapping and also enables the correct alias/synonym mapping to a large extent. So inturn better results and faster discovery.

Many biomedical search engines talk about searching through the entire Medline but results are highly erroneous as they do not handle cases such as isoform specificity of a proteins and also since they are limited to keyword based or single entity based searching it gives the end user a limited chance to view all the published findings. Many of these search engines just run their query on the top 100 or 200 abstracts for refining purposes- but XTractor Premium with its inbuilt semantic search indexes is able to quickly compute multiple relationships across entities and enables faster generation of scientific hypothesis from the evergrowing XTractor knowledgebase of more than 250000 facts.
