The Analytical Greenness calculator is a tool for evaluating the environmental and occupational hazards associated with a particular analytical procedure based on the 12 principles of Green Analytical Chemistry. The result of the assessment is translated into a graph that is easy to interpret and contains an overall score, as well as an indication to what degree the evaluated procedure conforms to each of the 12 principles. It can be used to compare different methods in order to select the one with the lowest environmental impact or to identify possible trouble spots in terms of "greenness" during conceptualization and development of novel analytical procedures.

The most recent version of the code is available at git.pg.edu.pl/p174235/AGREE.

AGREE_sfx.exe is a self-extracting archive. Upon download or execution, it might trigger an anti-malware warning which can be safely ignored.

We are testing a web app version of the tool: agree-index.anvil.app.
