| The primary objective of the CLIC consortium is to introduce and set standards for new ways of communicating molecular science, to specialists and to a larger, more diverse audience in education and industry. The intention is to enhance the perception, understanding, availablity and quality of scientific knowledge. Subjects covered within the broad area of chemistry are the development of molecular computers, high temperature superconductors, and advances in biotechnology. | |
| Information about recent research into hydrogen bonds, the chemical bonds that exist between H2O molecules and keep them together. | ||
| The BIDS RSC service provides access to seven databases supplied by The Royal Society of Chemistry, covering analytical chemistry, chemical engineering, health and safety, biotechnology, nutrition, mass spectrometry, and chemical industry news. Subscription required. Five of the databases contain bibliographic information: Analytical Abstracts (over 200,000 abstracts from 1980 onwards), Chemical Business NewsBase (over 430,000 abstracts from 1985 onwards, covering news of the worldwide chemical industry), Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology Abstracts (over 400,000 abstracts from over 500 key journals since 1970), Chemical Safety NewsBase (40,000 abstracts from 1981 onwards, covering health and safety matters), and Mass Spectrometry Bulletin (over 44,000 bibliographic records from 800 journals since 1991). The other two databases are Chemical Safety Data Sheets (safety information for 550 chemicals) and the UK Nutrient Databank (authoritative database of 60 nutrients in 3000 foods). | ||
| Covers all fields of scientific inquiry in which mass spectrometry can play a role, including chemistry, physics, geology, and environmental science as well as the biological, health, and life sciences. Fundamental subjects include instrumental principles, design, and demonstration, structures and chemical properties of gas phase ions, studies of thermodynamic properties, ion spectroscopy, chemical kinetics, mechanisms of ionisation, theories of ion fragmentation, cluster ions, and potential energy surfaces. Application papers focus primarily on the development or validation of a mass spectrometric method. Tables of contents available online. | ||
| Database of theoretical chemistry preprints, searchable by subject, abstract, year, title, and author. Intended for the international education and research community. | ||
| Refereed chemistry journal that aims to take advantage of modern electronic communication techniques. Subject areas include computer aided molecular design, quantum chemistry, visualisation, classification and handling of chemical data, rational drug design, protein and peptide modelling, molecular mechanics/dynamics simulation of polymers and biopolymers, prediction of biological activities (QSAR) and physico-chemical properties (QSPR), genetic algorithms and neural nets, and catalyst modelling. | ||
| Current research notes and descriptions about inorganic materials and solid state chemistry. | ||
| Theochem publishes research related to the theory and modelling of molecular systems, including electronic structure, graphical approaches to structure and properties, molecular modelling, reaction dynamics and scattering, spectroscopic and experimental studies, and statistical mechanics. | ||
| Abstracts and slides from the September 1997 meeting of the American Chemical Society. Article titles include 'Network Based Training Material for Computational Chemistry', 'Applications of Chemical Markup Language' and 'Effective Searching of Chemical Bibliographic Files on the Internet'. | ||
| Database of US patents from 1971 onwards. Chemical Patents Plus offers thorough, free searching for all US patents by patent number, basic text, CAS Registry Number, CAS chemical indexing, inventor or assignee name, or other data fields or combinations. | ||
| A very large and powerful chemical information system providing comprehensive information on millions of chemical substances and reactions. It is available to the UK and Irish academic communities as part of the MIMAS Service. | ||
| A scientific publication comprising short reviews that cover the latest advances in the analytical sciences. Fields covered include analytical instrumentation, biochemistry, biotechnology, clinical chemistry, environmental chemistry, forensic science, laboratory automation, materials science, pharmaceutical chemistry, process analysis, surface science, and toxicology. | ||
| Full text of IUPAC recommendations, including an illustrated glossary of class names of organic compounds and reactive intermediates based on structure, a glossary of physical organic chemistry, a list of elements in Atomic Number order, and a glossary of terms used in bioinorganic chemistry. | ||
| A virtual community for chemists. Includes a library of leading chemical periodicals and databases, the Alchemist, the ChemWeb magazine, a shopping mall with software, equipment, services, publications and a job exchange. Registration required. | ||
| Collection of slides explaining macroscopic thermodynamic properties in terms of microscopic properties of chemical systems. Provides information on the Boltzmann distribution function, polymers and biopolymers in statistical dynamics, and the relation of statistical mechanics to thermodynamics. | ||
| Links to university chemistry departments in the UK. | ||
| Set of links to full text preprints, industry journals and magazines, citation databases, and bibliographies, all of which relate to the field of chemistry. | ||
| Links to online chemistry journals arranged alphabetically. | ||
| Electronic journal which aims to promote use of the Internet and development of network resources to enable communication between chemists. The journal concentrates on publishing chemical research that includes materials that are difficult if not impossible to include in a traditional journal, especially those articles where the non traditional presentation is essential in understanding the work. It will incorporate Chemical Markup Language (CML) and become involved in the development of browser plug-ins, Java scripts and other external applications that will assist in communicating molecular science. | ||
| Information on CAS products, services, training, special offers and databases. | ||
| Resource for the study of molecular structure, in which X ray crystallography and molecular mechanics techniques are used to calculate the structures of 'interesting' molecules. The site contains rotatable models of minerals from Anhydrite to Wulfenite and information on amino acids, nucleotides, poisons, vitamins, Boron Hydrides and macromolecules. | ||
| Links to numerous chemistry journals and journal publishers, including those requiring subscriptions. | ||
