Chemical information provider Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), a division of the American Chemical Society, has announced a collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Library to provide enterprise-wide access to SciFinder. Scientists across NIH can now have on-demand access to what is claimed to be the most complete and authoritative chemistry content in the world.
With SciFinder, scientists have access to the world's largest curated collection of publicly disclosed information on chemistry and related research built and maintained by CAS scientists. SciFinder seamlessly links scientists to the CAS databases, providing chemical substances, reactions and other related content from more than 10,000 major scientific journals worldwide, patents from 63 global patent authorities, dissertations, meeting abstracts, electronic-only journals and other reputable Web sources. Scientists can use chemical structures, property values, researcher and organisation names, and research topics to explore scientific work disclosed by researchers around the world.
SciFinder is the choice for chemistry and related research for scientists worldwide. The intuitive Web interface enables researchers to access the world's most complete source for information on chemistry and related sciences. This includes the CAS REGISTRY—the gold standard of chemical substance and related information. Fortune 500 corporations, more than 1,800 universities and major government agencies worldwide rely on SciFinder to fuel R&D initiatives and foster innovation.
