Database Description

Derwent Biotechnology Resource, formerly Derwent Biotechnology Abstracts, produced by Thomson Derwent and Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), provides comprehensive coverage of journal articles, patents, and conference proceedings describing research in the field of biotechnology. It covers all aspects of biotechnology, including genetic engineering, biochemical engineering, fermentation, cell culture and waste disposal. Beginning in 2002 coverage has been expanded to include bioinformatics, functional genomics, pharmacogenomics, high throughput screening, biochips, and tissue engineering. Each month data from about 3,000 documents are added to the file in weekly updates. The number of records per update will increase throughout 2002. Each record in the database contains a detailed abstract together with controlled-language indexing, including an enhanced classification system from 2002 forward. Patent coverage is enhanced with complete Derwent World Patents Index® abstracts from June 2002 forward. Approximately 37 percent of the records are patent records. Literature records also include complete bibliographic information and author abstracts, which are provided by ISI from June 2002 forward.
