Chemical Abstracts as a resource for health and safety-related chemical information.
Documents relevant to the health and safety of the worker or consumer exposed to chemicals or radiation extend over the entire range of the chemical disciplines, and therefore pertinent information can appear throughout the Chemical Abstracts Service information systems. Access routes to such information in both CAS printed publications and computer-readable services are discussed. In the weekly issues of Chemical Abstracts, health and safety information can be accessed through the natural-language Keyword Index. Retrieval of pertinent information through the controlled headings of the CA Volume Indexes in conjunction with the Index Guide is also discussed. CA Selects, a set of current-awareness publications, is described as it pertains to the specialized areas of health and safety.
