The Chemwatch Scientific team comprises Hygienists, Chemists, Toxicologists,
Environmental Professionals, Safety Specialists and Physicians.
Their duties
include maintenance of the database ensuring both accuracy and currency.
Many hundreds of scientific journals are published weekly and their
content
must be reviewed for relevance as it applies to the Chemwatch System.
Some
6000 titles appear in Life-Science journals weekly; the Chemwatch
team
reviews every title.
New information is used to update the databases and is also broadcast
to
Chemwatch subscribers, weekly, by e-mail in the form of Bulletin
Boards.
