Fields​

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.stereochemistry ● CodeableConcept object​

Stereochemistry type.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.opticalActivity ● CodeableConcept object​

Optical activity type.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.molecularFormula ● String scalar​

Molecular formula of this substance, typically using the Hill system.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.molecularFormulaByMoiety ● String scalar​

Specified per moiety according to the Hill system, i.e. first C, then H, then alphabetical, each moiety separated by a dot.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.molecularWeight ● SubstanceDefinitionMolecularWeight object​

The molecular weight or weight range (for proteins, polymers or nucleic acids).

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.technique ● [CodeableConcept] list object​

The method used to elucidate the structure or characterization of the drug substance. Examples: X-ray, HPLC, NMR, Peptide mapping, Ligand binding assay.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.sourceDocument ● [Reference] list object​

The source of information about the structure.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.representation ● [SubstanceDefinitionRepresentation] list object​

A depiction of the structure or characterization of the substance.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.modifierExtension ● [Extension] list object​

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element s descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions. Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.extension ● [Extension] list object​

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

SubstanceDefinitionStructure.id ● String scalar​

Interfaces​

Element interface​

Base definition for all elements in a resource. If the element is present, it must have a value for at least one of the defined elements, an @id referenced from the Narrative, or extensions
