- Enter Value(s) To Search For
- Enter the identifying item for which you would like to search. (For example, if
you choose to search by CAS
Number, entering a Molecular Formula will not return valid results). Boolean wildcards
and truncation allow you to easily combine or eliminate search words, making your
search simpler:
- A percent sign % will match zero or more characters in that position (for example:
"%sodium" would find items such as "Metham sodium", "Methamsodium", and so forth).
- An underscore (_) will match one character at that position anywhere in a word (for
example: "Me_harpinia" would find "Metharpinia").
Choose "Search" to execute the query.
