Computer Software Reviews. BioAlmanac [CD-ROM]

The BioAlmanac ("your protein reference library on a disk") is a CD-ROM product that allows users to retrieve a wide variety of biochemical information about proteins-both purification and characterization data. By integrating the Protein Biochemical and Purification Database (PBPD) with the Protein Identification Resource (PIR) and Swiss-Prot protein sequence databases and the GenBank genetic sequence database, BioAlmanac has produced a unique and potentially useful product.
