Selected figures and exercises throughout the book are accompanied by annotated Media Links that direct students to Web-based resources (see the more detailed listing under Media-Based Supplements). These integrated links to the book s companion Web site are designed to make the text more dynamic and interactive. Chemical Principles contains integrated links to ... 

One of the best resources for looking at the way equilibrium constants K vary with ionic strength is the Web-based resource Joint Expert Speciation System (JESS) available at http //jess.murdoch.edu.au/jess/jess home.htm. Notice the way that values of any equilibrium constant (Ka, Kw, etc.) changes markedly with ionic strength I. 

HSTAT is a free, Web-based resource that provides access to full-text documents used in healthcare decision-making.14 These documents include clinical practice guidelines, quick-reference guides for clinicians, consumer health brochures, evidence reports and technology assessments from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), as well as AHRQ s Put Prevention Into Practice.15 Simply search by isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (or synonyms) at the following Web site http //text.nlm.nih.gov. 

In addition, there are now several web-based resources available to aid data simulation. The internet addresses (URLs) below are correct at the time of writing (Spring 2000), but it should be noted that such URLs do have a habit of changing often. 

The web-based resources for corrosion may be classified as (i) resources for solving corrosion problems (ii) resources for sharing information with the aid of virtual libraries and online databases and (iii) resources for sharing information within the organization (intranets). Some of the relevant websites for corrosion and materials are ... 

Select one Web-based resource listed in this chapter. Log on to the Web site and obtain pediatric-related disaster information. How can this information be applied to one s own hospital or community disaster preparedness plans ... 

Augmenting the CD version of CASSl is the CAS Source Index (CASSl) Search Tool (http //cassi. cas.org/search.jsp). Available from January 2010, the CASSl search tool is a free, web-based resource that can be used to quickly identify or confirm journal titles and abbreviations for publications indexed by CAS since 1907, including serial and non-serial scientific and technical publications.

The MMsINC database (Masciocchi et al., 2009) is a public web-based resource with more than 4 million nonredundant compounds for virtual screening and other computational applications. Substructure and similarity searching can be performed. MMsINC is linked to other databases such as FDA, PubChem, Protein Data Bank, and ZINC. 

A Middle East Virtual Campus should be established to facihtate exchanges of ideas among Middle East scientists. Web-based resources are needed, including a directory of laboratory equipment and expertise plus weblinks connecting to freely available databases and software.

There are dozens of resources that provide financial data. Free, web-based resources that aggregate news, financial, and analyst information in a user-friendly format include Quicken (http //www.quicken.com), Bloomberg (http //www.bloomberg.-com), and CNNMoney (http //money.cnn.com). Of particular note is Yahoo Finance (http //finance.yahoo.com) which has links to Yahoo Finance in Europe and Asia. The following resources generally require a fee or subscription for use. 

SMART (Simple Modular Architecture Research Tool) [12-14] is a Web-based resource used for the annotation of protein domains and the analysis of domain architectures, with particular emphasis on mobile eukaryotic domains. Extensive annotation for each domain family is available, providing information relating to function, subcellular localization, phyletic distribution and tertiary structure. The January 2002 release has added more than 200 hand-curated domain models. This brings the total to over 600 domain families that are widely represented among nuclear, signalling and extracellular proteins. Annotation now includes links to the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database in cases where a human disease is associated with one or more mutations in a particular domain, (http //smart, embl-heidelberg. de/help/smart about. shtml)... 

We need to make a distinction here between using the Internet to find your own resources and using web-based resources which have been monitored and provided by the iecturers and tutors in your department. You may find that academic staff put resources on the web for you to access. These may be iecture notes or other materiai which has been vetted and sanctioned as appropriate for you to use. Obviously, because they are recommended texts, there is no need to approach them with caution. 

Another problem with the choice of descriptors is accessibility. Some types of proprietary parameters are only available through the licensing of commercial software. There are, however, some web-based resources, such as Chembench (http //chembench.mml.unc.edu) and the Virtual Computational Chemistry Laboratory (www.vcclab.org) which both provide not only descriptor calculation facilities, but also access to statistical analysis routines. The molecular descriptors website (www.moleculardescriptors.eu) and QSAR world websites (www.qsarworld.com/qsar-web-based-programs.php) also provide useful links to resources such as databases and programs.

Today more and more information is taken from on-line resources. The World Wide Web has become a popular and reliable tool for research in many disciplines including polymer science. Rather than an exhaustive overview of the available web-based resources for polymer scientists, this section is interned to point the scientist to a few notable Internet portals that were useful in preparing this chapter. 

A number of pubUcations have demonstrated the applications of MALDI-MS for polymer characterization. Of particular interest, Hanton provided a Ust of pubUcations summarized according to the type of polymers analyzed by MALDI-MS [11]. In addition, an updated web-based resource for polymer/matrix preparation protocols is available from the Polymers Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) homepage (http //polymers.msel.nist.gov/ maldirecipes).
