ChemicalsOther Resources

ATSDR
A collection of resources with information about toxic substances including ToxFAQs, Toxicological Profiles, Interaction Profiles and a Priority List of Hazardous Substances.
CCRIS
A factual database sponsored by the National Cancer Institute. It contains evaluated data and information derived from both short- and long-term bioassays on over 8,000 chemicals. Studies relate to carcinogens, mutagens, tumor promoters, cocarcinogens, metabolites and inhibitors of carcinogens.
ChEBI
A dictionary of molecular entities focused on small chemical compounds.
ChemIDplus®
A resource providing access to structure and nomenclature information for the identification of chemical substances cited in NLM® databases.
DrugBank
The DrugBank database is a unique bioinformatics and cheminformatics resource that combines detailed drug (i.e., chemical, pharmacological and pharmaceutical) data with comprehensive drug target (i.e., sequence, structure, and pathway) information.
ECOTOX
A resource for single chemical toxicity information for aquatic and terrestrial life.
EDGE
A scientific resource for toxicology-related gene expression information.
EPA
The mission of the US Environmental Protection Agency is to protect human health and the environment. It provides environmental science, research, education, regulation and assessment efforts.
GENE-TOX
A database created by the US Environmental Protection Agency with genetic toxicology test results on over 3,000 chemicals. In the field of genetic toxicology, selected mutagenicity assay systems and the source literature are reviewed by work panels of scientific experts for each of the test systems under evaluation, and the GENE-TOX data bank is the product of these data review activities.
Haz-Map
An occupational toxicology database that links jobs to hazardous job tasks which are linked to occupational diseases and their symptoms.
Household Products Database
Health and safety information on household products.
HSDB®
A comprehensive, scientifically reviewed, factual database containing records for toxic or potentially toxic chemicals. It contains extensive information in such areas as toxicity, environmental fate, human exposure, chemical safety, waste disposal, emergency handling and regulatory requirements.
MeSH®
The National Library of Medicine®'s controlled vocabulary thesaurus of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)®. Components of this vocabulary are used for the CTD chemical and disease vocabularies.
NCT
A coordinated, multi-disciplinary research program of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
NIEHS
The mission of the NIEHS is to reduce the burden of human illness and dysfunction from environmental causes by understanding each of these elements and how they interrelate. The NIEHS achieves its mission through multidisciplinary biomedical research programs, prevention and intervention efforts, and communication strategies that encompass training, education, technology transfer and community outreach.
NLM® Toxicogenomics
A compendium of Internet resources related to toxicogenomics.
NTP
NTP was established in 1978 by the US Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate toxicological testing programs; strengthen the science base in toxicology; develop and validate improved testing methods; and provide information about potentially toxic chemicals to health regulatory and research agencies, the scientific and medical communities and the public.
PubChem
PubChem provides information on the biological activities of small molecules. PubChem is organized as three linked databases within the NCBI's Entrez information retrieval system.
SRS
A resource providing information on substances and how they are represented in the US Environmental Protection Agency regulations and information systems.
TOXLINE®
A bibliographic database covering the biochemical, pharmacological, physiological and toxicological effects of drugs and other chemicals.
TOXNET®
Databases on toxicology, hazardous chemicals, environmental health, and toxic releases.
