Advanced searches

We provide carotenoid entries and organism entries. Please try to search with our free word retrieval systems at search.cgi and search_organism.cgi as basic AND searches. AND/OR search is also available at search2.cgi, OR search is available at search3.cgi for carotenoid entry searches. Other eight types of advanced searches are available as below. Please try!
 Basic searches

    Carotenoid entry search of a free word retrieval system.
            Please try to enter key words, such as chemical formula, and Carotenoid DB Fingerprints.
              Ex.) Alga, Plant, Staphylococcus, C40H54O3, Lycopanerols, 3-OH, 4=O, apo, epsilon, etc.

           


    Organism entry search of a free word retrieval system.
            Ex.) Cyanobacteria, alga, orange, Opisthokonta, Sea sponge, etc.

    Search similar carotenoids with Carotenoid DB chemical fingerprints
            Ex.) CA00309 for β-carotene.

       
    Search similar carotenoids with source oragnism descriptions with Carotenoid DB chemical fingerprints
           * This may take a litte more time than a simple "Search similar carotenoids" linked above.
            Ex.) CA00721 for sea sponge caortenoid: Tethyanine.

       


    Predict biological activities of carotenoids using Carotenoid DB Chemical Fingerprints.
