Introducing SciFinder-n (and an invitation to an online demo!)
09/02/2022
We now have access to CAS SciFinder-n!
CAS SciFinder-n is the latest scientific information solution from CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society. In addition to the world’s largest collection of organic and inorganic substance information (the reference, substance, reaction and supplier content found in our previous SciFinder subscription), the new CAS SciFinder-n includes:
- relevance-ranked results
- step-by-step procedures and protocols
- citation mapping
- biosequence searching
- retrosynthetic analysis
- patent landscape mapping
- touch-screen enabled structure drawing
- and much more—all accessible in a simple, easy-to-use interface.
Please contact libraryresources@cranfield.ac.uk to register for an account the first time you use this database. If you have registered for SciFinder previously, you can use your existing username and password to access SciFinder-n.
Access to the old SciFinder platform will be available until March 4, 2022.
