Introduction to SciFinder. Content and Coverage. Benefits of SciFinder Agenda

Benefits of SciFinder Indexed Databases Around 1,000 scientists, are behind creation of SciFinder. They intellectually analyze published articles, patents and “Index” them with standard keywords, substance details, structures, processes, properties for easy retrieval.

Indexed Database From a 6 page article 124 Reactions

Search and read references from foreign languages….. in English. Benefits of SciFinder Global languages !! Holland Japan China Germany France Spain Canada Turkey Switzerland

Search Non-English Language literature too!

SciFinder adds related technical terms in your search and gives comprehensive answers For example, if your key word is “Solar cell”, you will also get answers where term is used as “Photovoltaic cells” or “solar battery” Search for “coat” would also retrieve answers such as coating, coats and coated Benefits of SciFinder Smart Wizard
