Content-enabled workflow solutions provider LexisNexis, US, has announced that its LexisNexis TotalPatent service is the first patent research service to provide users with direct links to abstracts of non-patent journal articles - offering them a more complete and efficient view of the information, news and trends related to patent issues they are managing.
TotalPatent, a past winner of the CODiE Award for Best Online Science or Technology Service, is a Web-based patent research, retrieval and analysis service. Powered by the world's largest collection of searchable full-text and bibliographic patent authorities, it is supported by 24/7 online help. TotalPatent users now have direct links from search results to article abstracts from more than 18,000 titles worldwide through Elsevier's SciVerse Scopus, an abstract and citation database containing both peer-reviewed research literature and quality web sources. LexisNexis and Elsevier are both part of Reed Elsevier.
SciVerse Scopus is populated with journals from more than 5,000 publishers. It offers researchers a comprehensive resource to support their research needs in the scientific, technical, medical, and social sciences fields, and more recently in the arts and humanities.
Other enhancements to TotalPatent include integration with Bizint; enhanced interfaces for the semantic search option with drag and drop functionality for easier manipulation of the concepts returned; assignee name normalisation; and direct links to Chisum on Patents, the world's foremost authority on US patent law.
