About
This website locates an article by a citation and redirects you to the online journal in chemistry (and some of biology and physics). It works completely on a client side by JavaScript. You can also download the files and run it in your local folder (Download a zip file).
Supported Publishers
The list of supported journals is here.
- American Chemical Society
- Wiley
- Elsevier
- Nature Publishing Group
- American Physical Society
- Springer
- Annual Reviews

- Cell Press
- Some other journals
Since I haven't tested each individual journal, there is no guarantee that all journals of these publishers are correctly supported.
