The Library of Congress and its major authority record exchange partners (British Library, Library and Archives Canada, National Library of Medicine, OCLC, Inc.) have agreed to a basic outline that will allow for the addition of non-Latin script references on name authority records distributed as part of the NACO program (no earlier than April 2008).
CPDB, the Carcinogenic Potency Database, was developed by the Carcinogenic Potency Project at the University of California, Berkeley, and by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. It reports analyses of animal cancer tests on 1547 chemicals. Results for each chemical are now searchable via the National Library of Medicine (NLM) Toxicology Data Network...CPDB includes 6540 chronic, long-term animal cancer tests (both positive and negative for carcinogenicity) from the general published literature as well as from the National Cancer Institute and the National Toxicology Program. Such tests are used in support of cancer risk assessments for humans. Information that is important in the interpretation of bioassays is reported in CPDB for each experiment.
