| CAB Abstracts--OvidSP | Compiled by CABI Publishing, CAB Abstracts provides comprehensive international coverage of the significant research and development literature in agriculture, forestry, aspects of human health, human nutrition, animal health and the management and conservation of natural resources. Sources scanned selectively for records are: professional and trade journals (over 9,000), reports, bulletins, conference proceedings, symposia, workshops, scientific texts, technical and popular books, theses, annual reports and a few categories of patents and standards. Major subject areas covered include: agricultural and environmental economics; agricultural engineering; animal production (including general and theoretical genetics, genetic engineering and immunogenetics); biodeterioration, bioremediation and biodegradation (including any organisms involved and their identification through molecular biology techniques); biotechnology in the areas of bioethics, intellectual property issues, genes and their expression, molecular biology techniques, genomics, genetic engineering, cloning, in vitro fertilization and gene therapy; broad coverage of crop protection (including pests, pathogens, natural enemies and control mechanisms for an extensive range of plants); dairy science and technology encompassing physiological, biochemical, immunological, microbiological, chemical and physics aspects; forestry, forest products and agroforestry; human nutrition with coverage extending into physiology, biochemistry and disorders; leisure, recreation, and tourism; all aspects of medical and veterinary parasitological disease which includes diagnosis, immunobiology, physiology, molecular and cell biology; developmental biology and genetics (molecular, population and biochemical); natural resources and environmental issues; plant breeding, crop production and horticulture; soil science, land/water management and fertilizer technology; rural development; veterinary medicine; and miscellaneous subjects (human and animal health, nematology, sugar technology and apiculture). Online coverage extends back to 1973. Print coverage for various subjects is available for earlier years. | 1973 - present | No |

| Chemical Abstracts (SciFinder) | SciFinder Scholar is a means of accessing the Chemical Abstracts database using a powerful and intuitive search engine to find references to articles easily. Search for chemical data using a molecular formula, chemical name, chemical structure, reaction components, author name, or topic of interest. | 1907 - present | Partial |
| Conference Papers Index | Conference Papers provides citations to papers and poster sessions presented at major scientific meetings around the world. Subject emphasis since 1995 has been in the life sciences, environmental sciences and the aquatic sciences, while older material also covers physics, engineering and materials science. Information is derived from final programs, abstracts booklets and published proceedings, as well as from questionnaire responses. Records include complete ordering information to obtain preprints, abstracts, proceedings and other publications derived from the conference, together with title and author information needed to track the specific papers. | 1982 - present | Partial |
