Scientific Bases

Sciencedirect.com is a website that provides subscription-based access to a large database of scientific and medical research.   ScienceDirect is operated by the Anglo-Dutch publisher Elsevier. It was launched in March 1997. It hosts over 12 million pieces of content from 3,500 academic journals and 34,000 e-books. The journals are grouped into four main sections: Physical Sciences and Engineering, Life Sciences, Health Sciences, and Social Sciences and Humanities. Article abstracts are freely available, but access to their full texts (in PDF and, for newer publications, also HTML) generally requires a subscription pay-per-view purchase. 

scopus.com is Elsevier’s abstract and citation database launched in 2004. Scopus covers nearly 36,377 titles from approximately 11,678   publishers, of which 34,346 are peer-reviewed journals in top-level subject fields: life sciences, social sciences, physical sciences. It covers three types of sources: book series, journals, and trade journals. All journals covered in the Scopus database, regardless of who they are published under, are reviewed each year to ensure high-quality standards are maintained. Scopus gives four types of quality measures for each title; those are h-index, CiteScore, SJR, and SNIP.
