Material Safety Data Sheets for chemical products are available to laboratory workers for most chemicals and reagents. However because many laboratory workers, whether in research, public health, teaching, etc., are exposed to not only chemicals but infectious substances as well, there was a large gap in the readily available safety literature for employees. These MSDS are produced for personnel working in the life sciences as quick safety reference material relating to infectious micro-organisms. The MSDS are organized to contain health hazard information such as infectious dose, viability (including decontamination), medical information, laboratory hazard, recommended precautions, handling information and spill procedures. The intent of these documents is to provide a safety resource for laboratory personnel working with these infectious substances. Because these workers are usually working in a scientific setting and are potentially exposed to much higher concentrations of these human pathogens than the general public, the terminology in these MSDS is technical and detailed, containing information that is relevant specifically to the laboratory setting. It is hoped along with good laboratory practices, these MSDS will help provide a safer, healthier environment for everyone working with infectious substances. The MSDS is ran by the Public Health Agency of Canada. The Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is the main Government of Canada agency responsible for public health in Canada. PHACs primary goal is to strengthen Canadas capacity to protect and improve the health of Canadians and to help reduce pressures on the health-care system. To do this, the Agency is working to build an effective public health system that enables Canadians to achieve better health and well-being in their daily lives by promoting good health, helping prevent and control chronic diseases and injury, and protecting Canadians from infectious diseases and other threats to their health. PHAC is also committed to reducing health disparities between the most advantaged and disadvantaged Canadians. Because public health is a shared responsibility, the Public Health Agency of Canada works in close collaboration with all levels of government (provincial, territorial and municipal) to build on each others skills and strengths. The Agency also works closely with non-government organizations, including civil society and business, and other countries and international organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) to share knowledge, expertise and experiences.

A database of ingredients in brand-name household products linked to health information from Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) provided by manufacturers. The database is designed to help answer the following typical questions: *What are the chemical ingredients and their percentage in specific brands? *Which products contain specific chemical ingredients? *Who manufactures a specific brand? How do I contact this manufacturer? *What are the acute and chronic effects of chemical ingredients in a specific brand? *What other information is available about chemicals in the toxicology-related databases of the National Library of Medicine? NLM and its Contractor (the Database Providers) do not test products nor investigate to determine if this information is complete or accurate.

http://www.fugu-sg.org/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE,documented on August 16, 2019. Fugu genome is among the smallest vertebrate genomes and has proved to be a valuable reference genome for identifying genes and other functional elements such as regulatory elements in the human and other vertebrate genomes, and for understanding the structure and evolution of vertebrate genomes. This site presents version 4 of the Fugu genome, released in October 2004 by the International Fugu Genome Consortium. Fugu rubripes has a very compact genome, with less than 15 consisting of dispersed repetitive sequence, which makes it ideal for gene discovery. A draft sequence of the fugu genome was determined by the International Fugu Genome Consortium in 2002 using the ''whole-genome shotgun'' sequencing strategy. Fugu is the second vertebrate genome to be sequenced, the first being the human genome. This webpage presents the annotation made on the fourth assembly by the IMCB team using the Ensembl annotation pipeline. We are continuing with the gap filling work and linking of the scaffolds to obtain super-contigs.

The National Bioscience Database Center (NBDC) intends to integrate all databases for life sciences in Japan, by linking each database with expediency to maximize convenience and make the entire system more user-friendly. We aim to focus our attention on the needs of the users of these databases who have all too often been neglected in the past, rather than the needs of the people tasked with the creation of databases. It is important to note that we will continue to honor the independent integrity of each database that will contribute to our endeavor, as we are fully aware that each database was originally crafted for specific purposes and divergent goals. Services: * Database Catalog - A catalog of life science related databases constructed in Japan that are also available in English. Information such as URL, status of the database site (active vs. inactive), database provider, type of data and subjects of the study are contained for each database record. * Life Science Database Cross Search - A service for simultaneous searching across scattered life-science databases, ranging from molecular data to patents and literature. * Life Science Database Archive - maintains and stores the datasets generated by life scientists in Japan in a long-term and stable state as national public goods. The Archive makes it easier for many people to search datasets by metadata in a unified format, and to access and download the datasets with clear terms of use. * Taxonomy Icon - A collection of icons (illustrations) of biological species that is free to use and distribute. There are more than 200 icons of various species including Bacteria, Fungi, Protista, Plantae and Animalia. * GenLibi (Gene Linker to bibliography) - an integrated database of human, mouse and rat genes that includes automatically integrated gene, protein, polymorphism, pathway, phenotype, ortholog/protein sequence information, and manually curated gene function and gene-related or co-occurred Disease/Phenotype and bibliography information. * Allie - A search service for abbreviations and long forms utilized in life sciences. It provides a solution to the issue that many abbreviations are used in the literature, and polysemous or synonymous abbreviations appear frequently, making it difficult to read and understand scientific papers that are not relevant to the reader's expertise. * inMeXes - A search service for English expressions (multiple words) that appear no less than 10 times in PubMed/MEDLINE titles or abstracts. In addition, you can easily access the sentences where the expression was used or other related information by clicking one of the search results. * HOWDY - (Human Organized Whole genome Database) is a database system for retrieving human genome information from 14 public databases by using official symbols and aliases. The information is daily updated by extracting data automatically from the genetic databases and shown with all data having the identifiers in common and linking to one another. * MDeR (the MetaData Element Repository in life sciences) - a web-based tool designed to let you search, compare and view Data Elements. MDeR is based on the ISO/IEC 11179 Part3 (Registry metamodel and basic attributes). * Human Genome Variation Database - A database for accumulating all kinds of human genome variations detected by various experimental techniques. * MEDALS - A portal site that provides information about databases, analysis tools, and the relevant projects, that were conducted with the financial support from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan.
