Ricco di termini e altamente specifico, ha il fine di facilitare lo scambio di informazioni nell’ambito della regolamentazione internazionale per prodotti medicali usati da soggetti umani. La terminologia MedDRA si applica a tutte le fasi dello sviluppo di prodotti medicali per uso umano. L'ambito di applicazione di MedDRA include concetti medicali, concetti relativi alla sanità e alla regolamentazione riguardanti tali prodotti, oltre alla terminologia riguardante gli effetti dei dispositivi sulla salute umana. La lingua per l'interrogazione del dizionario è l'inglese. Sono disponibili informazioni in lingua italiana ed è possibile scegliere per l'interfaccia utente (UI) diverse lingue , tra le quali italiano, inglese, francese, spagnolo, portoghese, tedesco, ceco, ungherese, cinese, giapponese, coreano, russo.Tra gli strumenti offerti da MedDra è disponibile il MedDRA Mobile Browser (MMB) con interfaccia utente multilingue, per navigare dai dispositivi mobili IOS o Android. L'accesso ai contenuti, sia da postazioni in rete di Ateneo che da postazioni esterne, avviene tramite login con credenziali da richiedere alla biblioteca (bibliomedfarm@unige.it)
PubChem
Curata dal NCBI (National Center of Biotechnology Information) della NLM (National Library of Medicine), PubChem è una banca dati gratuita di molecole chimiche composto da tre banche dati fattuali gratuite: PubChem Substance, PubChem Compound, PubChem Bioassay. PubChem Substance contiene informazioni sulle sostanze chimiche, PubChem Compound descrive le proprietà chimiche di questi composti e PubChem Bioassay include studi di bioattività effettuati dallo Developmental Therapeutic Program (NCBI), ognuno dei quali è linkato ai record di PubChem Substance. I tre database sono collegati ad altre banche dati della NCBI come PubMed, Protein e Structure. Come per PubMed, a cui PubChem è collegata, per accedere ad eventuali full text di pubblicazioni o per usufruire del servizio di fornitura di articoli quando ci si collega da postazioni esterne è necessario impostare sul proprio dispositivo il Proxy PAC.
