Kemga, a Solution to the Chemical eCommerce Problem

Getting Started

A chemical eCommerce site can be started with as little as a catalog file containing product identifiers. Supported formats include Excel, CSV, and SDF. If no machine-readable structures are present, they can be generated from SMILES, CAS Numbers, and systematic names contained within the catalog file. Quantity, pricing, and other product metadata are read from the catalog file. Updates use the same process. Kemga rebuilds your website based on the contents of the file, eliminating the need for redundant data entry.
