Chemistry in the palm of your hand
1 June 2005
Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) has delivered chemical information, including structures, via live interaction using BlackBerry and other handheld devices, opening up the opportunity to retrieve hundreds of literature references as well as molecular structure and related data for specific substances in real time. CAS will be making this mobile route to scientific databases, called CAS Mobile, available through its STN and SciFinder services in the near future. Users will be able to retrieve and analyse information from CAS' principal databases, CAplus and CAS Registry.
