The Dictionary of Natural Products (DNP) is the only comprehensive and fully-edited database on natural products. It provides the busy scientist with fast access to chemical, physical, bibliographic, and structural data on over 139,000 natural products organized into more than 43,000 -virtually every natural product isolated and reported in the literature. This very useful resource arose as a daughter product of the well-known Dictionary of Organic Compounds (DOC) which, since its inception in the 1930s has, through successive editions, always been a leading source of natural product information.

This OSU Trial runs through 9/7/2013.
