DBIS - CAS SciFinder

Cas Scifinder includes chemical, medical, biological and scientific information from global collections of magazines, patents and other relevant literature that were intellectually curated by CAS scientists. CAS SCIFINDER enables scientists: Inside the answering of your questions about reactions, sequences, established and innovative substances, SAR data and allows a comprehensive search at the latest state of the art. Chemzent as part of CAS Scifinder helps to rediscover lost chemical knowledge from the groundbreaking research of the earliest published chemistry. It can be worked with simple synthesis procedures and information about the first discovery of natural substances has been contained since the early 1830s.

The CAS Scifinder area Analytical Methods is a compendium of intellectually curated analytical methods from publications and supplements. It enables the search for analytes, analytical details and validation data as well as after instrumentation in chemistry, food and environmental sciences.

For the CAS Scifinder area formulus , CAS extracts formulation -specific information in order to display details, to research certain ingredients and to display the source of the information. The extended search provides easy -to -understand details about a wording, including components, process and experimental activity. The wording designer provides a template based on an individual selection of industry, purpose, physical form and active/special ingredients.

The SAR data in CAS SCIFINDER allow the targeted assessment of the pharmaceutical activity, toxicology and adme of a sorted connection.
