SciFinder Scholar [Web Version - Registration Required]
-
SciFinder Scholar is the most comprehensive bibliographic database for
scholarly research in the field of chemistry. It contains over 29
million citations and indexes over 10,000 journals, covering all aspects
of chemistry, including chemical aspects of: biology and life sciences,
engineering and materials science, food science, geology, medicine,
physics, and polymer science. SciFinder Scholar also allows searching
of chemical substances, chemical reactions, and includes some property
data and spectra. It is the online version of Chemical Abstracts.
Coverage: 1907 - present.
