SciFindern
The SciFindern database is offered by Chemical Abstract Service (CAS). It contains information on bibliographic data of documents (including patents), chemical reactions, organic and inorganic compounds and sequences, chemical substances (including information on substances for sale) and biomedical data. The database is part of the CAS SciFinder Discovery Platform. This also includes CAS Formulus and CAS Analytical Methods.
Registration
The University Library has licensed the database so that it can be used by all members of Chemnitz University of Technology. Before using SciFinderSciFindern as part of the CAS SciFinder Discovery Platform for the first time, you have to register as a user at CAS. Only one registration per person is possible. Please note that a registration is only possible with avalid TU Chemnitz email address. Other private email addresses are not accepted. Furthermore, you have to be inside the TU Chemnitz campus network or connected to the network via VPN.
If your TU Chemnitz email address changes (e.g. due to a change of faculty), please change your stored email address in your SciFinder user data before the old email address is deactivating (still only one TU Chemnitz email address per person).
