from"SergeiNikolenko"

Burette is a macOS molecular preview application and plugin system. Its public plugin source links tools to ui://burette resources, including a revision-checked Ketcher editor and molecular structure views.

Not for: Clinical, laboratory or chemistry safety decisions. The views assist inspection and editing; they do not validate a molecule's activity, synthesis or safety.
