A revisited auditing of the analytical abstracts database
This paper is a follow-up of a previous one dealing with the "Image of Analytical Chemistry as Reflected in the Analytical Abstracts Database: Journal Coverage, Concentration and Dispersion of the Analytical Literature" (J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 1993, 33, 164-173). It deals with revisiting these topics. The results have shown that the database has substantially improved its coverage by editorial reorganizations in 1994. The only open problem which has been revealed is a somewhat excessive emphasis given to the coverage of the journals on the lower tail of the journal distribution. The suggestion is made to reduce this emphasis in favor of an even more complete coverage of some "titled" analytical journals.
