8.  In silico; qualitative, pre-screen 1000’s of compounds  In chemico; depletion-based quantitative, screen 100’s of compounds  Adduct identification; LC-MS-MS, 10’s of compounds

9.  Use in a similar context to in vitro or in silico  Quantitative, rapid, inexpensive experiments with model nucleophiles  Verify mechanism-based rules of reactivity  Define the applicability domain of a reactive mechanism  Provides a measure of relative potency

10.  Protocol (Schultz et al., 2005) is quantitative, rapid, inexpensive, abiotic, and spectrophotometric-based  Depletion method; measures % free thiol with GSH as the model nucleophile  Endpoint is RC 50 (50% reactive concentration; mM) is calculated by probit analysis of concentrations- response data after 2-hrs
