SciFinder, a resource from the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), is a curated database of chemical and bibliographic information that covers several scientific and biomedical fields, with an emphasis on chemistry. Originally launched in 1995 as a desktop software application, the web version of SciFinder was released in 2008 [1]. According to CAS, the intended audience for SciFinder includes researchers who are affiliated with pharmaceutical companies, universities, and other health sciences settings [2]. SciFinder is an appropriate resource to consult for literature searches and to find background information on chemicals, drugs, and substances.
