For example:
indexAI=(A-1009-2008 OR 0000-0002-1553-596X)finds records in which either the Researcher ID A-1009-2008 or the ORCID identifier 0000-0002-1553-596X appears in the Author Identifiers table. indexAN=(University of Pennsylvania)Finds records in which the University of Pennsylvania is the named patent assignee of a patent record. indexAU=(Khan E* AND Dickinson J*)Finds records in which both Khan E and Dickinson J both appear in the author list. indexCB=Glycine AND TI=MutationFinds records that contain the term mutation in the title and the term glycine within the Chemical Data table. indexCC=(Poultry AND Eggs) NOT TS=chick*Finds records in which the major concepts poultry and eggs appear in the Concept Code field of a record, but records containing chicks, chicken, and chickens are excluded. indexCH=(Hemoglobin AND glucose) AND DS=diabetesFinds records in which the chemical names hemoglobin and glucose appear in the Chemical Data table and the term diabetes (or diabetes mellitus) appears in the Disease Data table. indexCR=14265-44-2Finds records that contains this CAS Registry Number within the Chemical Data table. indexDE=(Goat Farming)Finds records that have the term goat farming listed as a Miscellaneous Descriptor. indexED=Korczyn ADFinds records of articles that were reviewed by this editor. indexGE=Argentina AND GT=(Early Eocene)Finds records which have the term Argentina in the Geographic Data table and Early Eocene in the Geologic Time Data table. indexGN=(Frizzled Homolog)Finds records which have the gene name variant Frizzled Homolog listed in the Gene Name Data table. indexGP=MerckFinds records in which this group author appears in the Group Author(s) field within a record. indexIC=173*Finds records which contain any codes beginning with the digits 173, including (but not limited to) ISSN, ISBN, Concept Codes, Patent Class, Patent Number, etc. indexIS=1367-4803Finds records of publications such as journals and electronic publications that contains this ISSN number in the ISSN field within a record. The ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) searches for periodical publications such as journals and electronic publications. If a journal has both a print ISSN and an electronic ISSN, then both display in the Full Record. The format is four numbers, a hyphen (-), three numbers, and then a check character that may be a number or X. indexIS=3-540-43697-9Finds records of books that contains this ISBN number in the ISBN field within a record.

The format is a 10-digit number that contains 3 hyphens (-). The last digit is a check character, which may be a number or an X. The position of the hyphens can vary for each ISBN identifier. indexMC=Biogeography AND TA=ParrotFinds records which have Biogeography listed as a Major Concept and the term Parrot listed in the Taxonomic Data table. indexMI=(zoological AND Japan AND 2002)Finds records in which the search terms zoological and Japan appear in the Meeting Information field, along with the year 2002.
indexMQ=(Neon Laser) AND DE=CancerFinds records which have Neon Laser listed in the Methods and Equipment Data table and the term Cancer listed in the Disease Data table. indexPSD=(Organelles AND Digestive System)Finds records which have the terms Organelles and Digestive System listed Neon Laser listed in the Parts and Structures Data table. indexPY=2007 AND SO=Journal of Cell ScienceFinds records of articles that appear in the Journal of Cell Science published in 2007. When searching by publication year, you must combine the PY= field tag with another field tag using the AND or NOT Boolean operator. Example: TS=cell growth AND PY=2007 When entering a range of years, restrict your search to five years or less; otherwise, processing slows down and the product returns too many unproductive results. Example: TS=cell growth AND PY=(2008-2010) indexSO=Nature AND TS=Amphibian*Finds records of articles that appear in the journal Nature that contain the term amphibian. SO=Nature AND TS=Amphibian* AND PY=2001Finds records of articles published in the journal Nature in 2001 that contain the term amphibian. indexSO=Journal of Cell Science AND TI=canc*Finds records of articles that appear in the Journal of Cell Science that contain the words cancer, cancerous, carcinogen, etc. indexSQ=DQ456865Finds records of articles that list the accession number in the Sequence Data table. indexSU=Computer Sciencefinds records in which this term appears in the Research Areas field of a Full Record. These records may also include other research areas such as:
For a list of research areas, see Research Areas. indexSU=Mathematical & Computational Biology OR SU=MathematicsFinds records in which either or both research areas appear within the Research Area field in a Full Record. These records may also include other research areas such as:
See also Research Areas indexTA=Mytilus edulisFinds records in which the organism name Mytilus edulis (variant name is mussel) appears in the Taxonomic Data table. indexTI=succinic acidfinds records in which the terms succinic and acid appear in the title. TI="succinic acid"finds records in which the exact phrase succinic acid appears in the title. indexTI=(sul*ur AND denitri*)Finds records containing the search terms sulfur (or sulphur) and denitrification (or denitrify, denitrifying, etc.) in the title of an article. indexTS=Monte Carlo simulationfinds records of publications containing the terms Monte, Carlo and simulation in any Topic field. The terms do not have to appear together in the same field. TS="Monte Carlo simulation"finds records of articles containing the exact phrase Monte Carlo simulation in a Topic field. indexTS=(sul*ur AND nitra* AND denitri*)Finds records containing the search terms sulfur (or sulphur) and nitrate (or nitrates) and denitrification (or denitrify, denitrifying, etc.). indexTS=(sul*ur AND nitra*) AND #1Finds records containing the search terms sulfur (or sulphur) and nitrate (or nitrates) that also contain the search terms found in set #1. indexTS=biodeterioration AND #1 NOT #3Finds records containing the search term biodeterioration that also contain the search terms found in set #1, but excludes all records that contain the search terms found in set #3. indexUT=PREV201100582396Finds the record that is associated with this unique accession number. UT=PREV2011005823*Finds all records that begin with this accession number. The use of the asterisk (*) wildcard after the last digit increases the number of results that the product returns. For example:
indexUT=*0058231*Finds all records that contain these characters in the accession number. Using both left-hand and right-hand truncation (before the first digit and after the last digit) increases the number of results that the product returns. |
