Biological Abstracts provides information in virtually every life sciences discipline, including biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, botany, pre-clinical and experimental medicine, pharmacology, zoology, agriculture, and veterinary science.  The APSU subscription to this database provides access to thousands of citations from journals published from 1969 to the present. 

This database does not provide full-text articles; however, full-text articles available from Woodward Library can be located by clicking on the button under each citation.  Articles with no full-text available can be requested from Inter-Library Loan using the link at the  bottom of the "Search for Full Text" results page.

Browse or search the complete list of journals indexed within Biological Abstracts.

For help searching Biological Abstracts, use the Quick Reference Card (PDF) or the help sections available within the database.
