Bookmark and Share Chemical Reference Data Group

Welcome

The Chemical Reference Data Group compiles, evaluates, correlates and measures Standard Reference Data and develops and disseminates associated electronic databases and associated analysis software for (a) thermochemical properties of industrially and environmentally important chemicals, including reactive intermediates such as free radicals and positive and negative ions, (b) electron ionization mass spectra and associated retention properties for chemical identification by gas chromatography, (c) tandem mass spectra in electrospray and MALDI mass spectrometry especially for biological applications in proteomics and metabolomics. Also develops and evaluates new structure-based estimation methods and reference data quality control methods for chemical reference data.
