Thanks to an e-mail from Warren Porter, the UW zoologist who studies
the interactive effects of pesticides and chemicals in low doses on
biological systems, I remembered that I never shared this URL with
you all last winter when I first ran across it.

ChemFinder is a chemical searching system, and it's easy to use.
For example, I typed in "diazinon" in one field, and it returned
--a list of a couple dozen "synonyms"
--chemical structure and properties info,
--a list of about 40 links to other sites, including ExToxNet, OSHA,
SARA/CERCLA, ATSDR, and my personal favorite, the NJ Department of
Health hazardous chemical sheets (which include things like chronic
and acute exposure effects). But not PANNA. :^)
Technically speaking, my guess is a) this thing kicks major tuchus
and b) it was designed for chemical industry people.
It's a service of CambridgeSoft Corporation:
