CAB ABSTRACTS is a comprehensive file of applied life science information containing all records in the 44 abstract journals published by CAB International (CABI), plus many more records which appear online only.
CABI has long been recognized as a leading scientific information service in agriculture and related sciences. Of particular note are sections in the database comprehensively covering literature in the fields of veterinary medicine, human nutrition, horticulture, forestry, leisure, recreation, and tourism.
More than 9,000 serial journals in more than 50 languages are scanned, as well as books, reports, and other publications. About 225,000 items per year are selected for inclusion in CAB Abstracts. Roughly 95 percent of the literature is abstracted, while less important works are reported with bibliographic details only. An online thesaurus is available as an aid in locating broader, narrower, and related subject terms. File 250, ONTAP CAB ABSTRACTS, is available for ONline Training And Practice; it contains approximately 38,000 CAB ABSTRACTS records from early 1993.
CAB ABSTRACTS covers every branch of the applied life sciences, including:

|---|---|
| File Size: | More than 5.2M records as of June 2008 |
