MarinLit Online Trial

MarinLit is available for JCU staff and students as a trial resource until 11 September 2020.

 

The MarinLit database was established in the 1970s by Professors John Blunt and Murray Munro at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand. It was designed as an in-house system to fulfil the needs of the University of Canterbury Marine Group and has evolved to contain unique searchable features and powerful dereplication tools. The extremely comprehensive range of data contained along with these powerful features makes MarinLit the database of choice for marine natural products researchers.

The online version of MarinLit will allow you to:

• Search acrross more than 24,000 compounds and 26,000 articles through one interface
• Draw your own structure and then search - or use molecular formulae to search
• Search by DOI and navigate straight to the article
• Use flexible free text to search across title, date, issue, keywords, trivial names
• Quickly filter and refine your search results

Professors John Blunt and Murray Munro (University of Canterbury) have used their expert knowledge of the database to create tutorials explaining how to use its powerful features to solve problems faced by marine natural product researchers. Click here to view the MarinLit tutorials.
