Hi,
This is more of a data-based issue. Using the database, we found some compounds that are definitely not natural products, such as Fluconazole (CNP0337557), Dexamethasone (CNP0225499), or Tamoxifen (CNP0242315).
How do you proceed in such cases? Do you manually remove them or do you report them to the original database?
Thanks!
Best regards,
Ctibor

Hi,
Yes, I remove those manually, after adding their identifiers in a "non-NP" list. Some of the databases (and I'll bet that these compounds come from SuperNatural) are not responsive at all, and would not update their records.
I'll remove the compounds you put here, thank you for the information! Did you spot any other like those?

Thanks for an instant response!
Just these really hit my eye since they are known synthetic drugs.
I'll definitely let you know if I find some more.
Thanks.

Thank you also for spotting these! I'm in a constant curation of the database, and any input is always welcome!
