Books

Basic concepts in biochemistry
Jargon-free, easy-to-remember guide to how biochemistry works.

Biochemistry
The new edition of Stryerʼs standard text emphasizes how gene sequencing has unified the understanding of protein structure and function.

Harper's biochemistry
Includes sections on structures & functions of proteins & enzymes, bioenergetics & the metabolism of carbohydrates & lipids, biochemistry of extracellular & intracellular communication and special topics.

Hawley's condensed chemical dictionary
Compendium of technical data and descriptive information covering thousands of chemicals and chemical phenomena.


Databases

BIOSIS previews
Covers original research reports and reviews in biological and biomedical areas. Coverage includes traditional areas of biology, such as botany, zoology and microbiology, as well as related fields such as biomedical, agriculture, pharmacology and ecology. Interdisciplinary fields such as medicine, biochemistry, biophysics, bioengineering and biotechnology are also included.

Chemical Abstracts (SciFinder Scholar)
SciFinder Scholar provides access to the CAplus database of chemical literature and U.S. and foreign chemical-related patents, to CASREACT, to the Registry database from Chemical Abstracts Service, and to Medline. It includes journal articles, book chapters, patents, conference proceedings, technical reports, substance database and dissertations covered in Chemical Abstracts as well as articles currently being indexed, book reviews and biographical information.

Web of Science
Includes Arts & Humanities Citation Index, Social Sciences Citation Index, and Science Citation Index. Contains the references cited by the authors of the journal articles they cover. A cited reference search enables you to find papers that cite a published work that you already know. In addition to cited reference searching, you can search by topic, author, or title.
