Citations to Journal Articles
1. Marshall, W. L., J. Chem. Eng. Data 32, 221, 1987
This is a citation from a journal article. Gives author, journal title abbreviation, volume, page, and year. It was common in the past (and still occurs today) to see the journal title abbreviated. If you don’t know what the journal abbreviation means, use a resource such as CASSI. To find out if we have access to the article, search for the journal in Library Catalog as a periodical title, or look in the A-Z list of electronic journals.
2. Freiermuth, B.; Wentrup, C. J. Org. Chem. 1991, 56, 2286– 2289
Another citation from a journal article, the order of elements is switched around but the information is the same as in the above example as is the procedure for finding the article.
3. Title: Identification of Plasma Protein Targets of 4-Hydroxynonenal and Their Sites of Modification Utilizing Click cycloaddition, Photocleavable Linkers, and Shotgun Proteomics
Author(s): Kim, HY; Tallman, KA; Codreanu, SG, et al.
Source: CHEMICAL RESEARCH IN TOXICOLOGY Volume: 23 Issue: 1 Pages: 276-276 Published: 2010
Citation from Web of Science (WoS) search. This one is easy, journal title spelled out, all information clearly presented.
4. BERGER C

SCIENCE 312 : 1191 DOI 10.1126/science.1125925 2006
This citation from the list of cited references in WoS includes a special piece of information, the DOI. This is an article identifier and is beginning to be used as a search term.
5. DEMARTINO A Magnetic confinement of massless Dirac fermions in graphene PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 98 : ARTN 066802 2007
This citation is to an electronic version of an article. There is no page number. Instead there is an article number ARTN 066802.
6. CO2 Adsorption on Carbon Models of Organic Constituents of Gas Shale and Coal By Liu, Yang-Yang; Wilcox, Jennifer From Environmental Science & Technology, ACS ASAP. Language: English, Database: CAPLUS
This citation from SciFinder Scholar is to the ASAP version of an article so there is no information about journal volume, issue, pages or date. This information will be available later when the article appears in an issue of the journal.
7. Puls, J.; Saake, B. ACS Symp. Ser. 2004, 864, 24-37
