Biological Abstracts

For over 65 years, Biological Abstracts has provided references to worldwide life science literature for researchers, scientists and information specialists. Biological Abstracts contains references to journal items focusing on vital biological and medical research findings, clinical studies, and discoveries of new organisms.

Coverage

• 6,500 international journals are monitored, representing virtually every life science discipline, including agriculture, biochemistry, biotechnology, botany, ecology, environment, microbiology, neurology, pharmacology, public health.
• Approximately 340,000 records will be added in the 1995 subscription year.
• Approximately 85% of the records include informative abstracts.

Each record is assigned to one of 84 alphabetically arranged subject headings. Within each subject heading, citations and abstracts are placed in numeric sequence. The indexes in each issue provide four modes of access to the literature:

Author name(s) (personal or corporate): Listed in alphabetical order, the Author Index includes up to 100 authors of a given document. When no personal author exists, a corporate name is used.

Taxonomic categories: The Biosystematic Index features broad taxonomic categories above the genus level (phylum, class, order, family).

Organisms: In the Generic Index, organism names are listed alphabetically at the genus-species level.

Subject words: Arranged alphabetically, the Subject Index lists all significant words from the title as well as descriptive words added by BIOSIS (with the exception of genus-species names). Entries are displayed in context by showing preceding and succeeding words.

Medline

Description: MEDLINE contains references to articles in the health science and biomedical journals published world-wide. Topics include clinical and experimental medicine, basic sciences as related to medicine, dentistry, nursing, pharmacology, psychiatry, public health and veterinary medicine. Biological and physical sciences, humanities and information science as related to medicine and health care are also included.

Coverage: All languages; over 3,700 journals, from 1966 to the present; updated monthly.

Information Source: National Library of Medicine; MEDLINE is MEDlars onLINE, and is NLM's premier bibliographic database. It is a composite of three major print sources: Index Medicus, Index to Dental Literature, and International Nursing Index. Index Medicus is located in Middleton Library, Reference Area, Index Table 3.

Access: Full MEDLINE is available from STN, with searching performed at the Chemistry Resources by the librarian. MEDLINE is also available online through Lexis/Nexis in the Chemistry Resources and Middleton Reference area. The Veterinary Medicine Library has MEDLINE on CD-ROM on a stand-alone workstation.

Chemical Abstracts

Chemical Abstracts. 1907 -

The premier indexing source for chemical, biochemical, and chemical engineering literature, covering over 12,000 journals and conferences, as well as technical reports, dissertations, books, and patents. There are two basic parts: the weekly abstracts issues, arranged by topics (each issue contains its own indexes), and cumulative semiannual indexes, offering access by chemical substances name, formula, general subject, and author. There are also Collective Indexes covering 10 - or 5 - year periods. Use the printed flyers available in the Library to learn the basics of searching the printed indexes.

Check for the person s name as a subject; prior to 1971, use the Subject Indexes. Obituaries and biographical sketches are often listed there. Located on the Index Table.

Check for the person s name as a subject; after 1971, use the General Subject Index. Obituaries and biographical sketches are often listed there. Located on the Index Table.

Search for original publications by authors last name. The Author Indexes link names of authors, coauthors, inventors, and assignees to the abstract numbers of documents that they have produced. Since corporations are frequently listed as assignees of patent rights, these indexes include corporate as well as personal names. Abstract numbers and document titles are linked only to the first listed author of coauthored papers. Other author names are cross-referenced to the name of the first author.
