Combinatorial chemistry

Combinatorial chemistry is a branch of chemistry that creates a large number of different compounds using standardized reactions. Very often robots are used for synthesis. After synthesis, the compounds with the desired properties are kept. The main use for the procedure is Medicinal chemistry and pharmacology.
