The syntax for creating links is http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/r?dbs+: where “dbname” can be: hsdb, iris, genetox, iter, ccris, toxline, dart, and “query” can be search terms, or boolean queries, or search terms in a specified field. All spaces should be replaced with a plus sign in the URL. Example 1: Searching toxicogenomics in TOXLINE http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/r?dbs+toxline:toxicogenomics Example 2: Searching by Document Number in TOXLINE http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/r?dbs+toxline:@term+@DOCNO+BIOSIS/90/07017 Example 3: Searching vinyl chloride AND hepatocellular carcinoma in CCRIS http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/r?dbs+ccris:+vinyl+chloride+AND+hepatocellular+carcinoma Example 4: Finding all records in HSDB that were reviewed in 2004 http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/cgi-bin/sis/search/r?dbs+hsdb:@rvdt+2004 A relevant field tag should be used following a “@” sign.
