When a search is completed, you can view and filter the results, change the result display, retrieve related data, and keep/remove, combine with saved items, download, email, or save selected results.
You can focus the result set by applying filters. The result set changes dynamically as filters are applied or removed. (See Filter Substances, Filter Reactions, Filter References, or Filter Suppliers for information about the filters specific to each result type.)
Select a View option to change how the results are displayed. For example, on the Substances page, the options are Full and Partial. The Partial view displays the substances in a grid with a minimum of data.
Partial |
Full |
|
For example, on the Substances page, there are options to retrieve References, Reactions, and Suppliers for all or selected results.
Keep Selected Results: All unselected results removed.
Remove Selected Results: All selected results removed.
Combine Substance, Patent Markush, Reaction, or Reference results with saved results or a search.
Click the Download icon
to download all, selected, or a range of results:
Click the Email icon to share results with a colleague
via email. If no results are explicitly selected, the entire result set
is shared. The person who receives the email must log in to CAS SciFindern to view the
results.
If there are selected results, the specific results are saved along with the search that produced them.
If there are not selected results, the only search is saved.
Click the Save and Alert button:
Name the saved result set/search.
Create Alert: Under Alert Frequency, select whether to receive optional As Available (new content added), Weekly, or Monthly email alerts of new results that match the search being saved.
You may also add an existing tag or create a new one:
Check a box to add a tag; uncheck a box to delete a tag.
To create a new tag, enter text in the New Tag field. You may select a color to assign it to the tag.
Notes:
Tags names are not case sensitive; for example, if you have existing tag named "For Review" that uses green, attempting to create new tag named "for review" with the same color just applies the existing "For Review" tag.
Naming a tag using an existing tag name but different color creates a new tag.
Click the Save button.
The saved results/search will appear on the Your Saved Items page with any alert settings and tagging you specified.
The Your Saved Items page is also where you manage the alerts and tags for the saved results/searches.
