Finding Journal ArticlesRecommended DatabasesTop Three Biochemistry & Biophysics Databases to Start With: MEDLINE - topics covered include clinical and experimental medicine; microbiology; pathology; pharmacology; physiology; reproductive biology; toxicology; and veterinary medicine (virtually identical to PubMed). Biological Abstracts/BIOSIS - topics focus on biology, including biochemistry, endocrinology, genetics, microbiology, molecular and cellular biology, and physiology. Web of Science - topics include all science disciplines, includes cited reference searching
Other Databases to Try:
SciFinder Scholar - covers all aspects of chemistry, requires installation of search software. INSPEC - topics covered include physics, computer science and electrical engineering. ArticleFirst - topics covered include science, technology, medicine, social science, business, humanities and popular culture. ingenta - covers almost all topics, includes an automated alerting service that delivers the tables-of-contents of journals via e-mail. Dissertation Abstracts - includes the complete range of academic subjects appearing in dissertations accepted at accredited institutions. GPO Monthly Catalog - Indexes publications of U.S. federal agencies.
Online Resources (not including databases paid for by OSU)Using an online bookmarking tool, del.icio.us, the Biosciences Librarian continually adds and updates biosciences links for staff and faculty at OSU. Simply visit her del.icio.us site and sort through the different subjects by using the tags in the left hand column. Or, use the truncated list below: |
