Databases - Specific

MEDLINE with Full Text from EBSCOhost
Created by the National Library of Medicine, Medline is the premiere medical database. Ebsco's version includes full text for nearly 1,200 of the 5,264 journals indexed in MEDLINE. Search results can be limited by type of research, reviews, and case reports when using the Advanced Search mode.
MEDLINE can also be searched in the NLM's PubMed database which includes "in-process" records for articles that have not yet been entered into MEDLINE. PubMed also covers a broader range of journals, but does not provide full text articles as Ebsco access does.

ProQuest Nursing and Allied Health Source from ProQuest
Includes more than 280 full-text/image journals in nursing and allied health, 1988 to the present. Medical Technology, Laboratories, and Laboratory equipment are all subject headings in this database.

Web of Science from ISI
In addition to covering over 22,000 journals, ISI's Web of Science covers conference proceedings, patents, and scholarly web content. Virtually all scientific fields of study are included. Web of Science contains the Science Citation Index, Social Sciences Citation Index, and the Arts & Humanities Citation Index and is designed to make it easy for you to determine the authors, institutions and journals most critical to a particular question or area of study by pursuing relevant citations. It also provides full text links to articles in over 10,000 journals.

CINAHL from EBSCOhost
Searches journals from 17 allied health disciplines, including lab sciences, and provides full text for some of them. Technology-Medical, Laboratories, and Laboratory Equipment are all subject headings in CINAHL. IF you're supposed to be, or would like to be, searching with "CINAHL Headings" - watch this brief video. Since you're here, you can fast-forward the video to :27 if you like.
