The study of the index of ideality of correlation as a new criterion of predictive potential of QSPR/QSAR-models
Abstrakt
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors (DHFR), Toxicity in Tetrahymena pyriformis (TP), Acute Toxicity in fathead minnow (TFat), Water solubility (WS), and Acute Aquatic Toxicity in Daphnia magna (DM) are examined as endpoints to establish quantitative structure - property/activity relationships (QSPRs/QSARs). The Index of Ideality of Correlation (IIC) is a measure of predictive potential.
The IIC has been studied in a few recent works. The comparison of models for the six endpoints above confirms that the index can be a useful tool for building up and validation of QSPR/QSAR models.
All examined endpoints are important froman ecologic point of view. The diversity of examined endpoints confirms that the IIC is real criterion of the predictive potential of a model.
