The potential of a pesticide or biocide to cause adverse effects in the developing embryo or fetus is an important consideration in any health risk assessment for humans and wildlife. Such information is usually derived from experimental studies in which pregnant laboratory animals are exposed to various concentrations of compounds during critical stages of fetal development. The terms and diagnostic criteria used to describe fetal anomalies need to be consistent from one laboratory to another. Consequently, the DevTox Project has three main objectives: To harmonize the nomenclature used to describe developmental anomalies in laboratory animals, to assist in the visual recognition of developmental anomalies with the aid of photographs, and to provide a historical control database of developmental effects in laboratory animals. ...

FlyView is an image database on Drosophila development and genetics, especially on expression patterns of genes (enhancer trap lines, cloned genes). Our aim is to establish the possibility to compare images on the computer screen and to search for special patterns at different developmental stages. FlyView presents three possibilities for searching: Search for pattern elements (with keywords in text descriptions, getting back images with links to the appropriate stocks), search for stocks (with stock number, allele, genotype, chromosome, insertion site, viability, developmental stage or expression pattern, getting back a list of found stocks that guide to full descriptions (including links to images, e-mail address for ordering and, in the case of BDGP lines, also direct links to FlyBase and/or EofD)) and Overview (an actual list of all lines included in FlyView, linked to stock descriptions and images). The success of this database exclusively depends on the activity of the Drosophila community. All Drosophila workers are asked to contribute to this database by submitting images and accompanying text. ... [Information of the supplier, modified]
GoPubMed retrieves PubMed abstracts for your search query, detects Gene Ontology (GO) terms in the abstracts, displays a subset of the GO relevant to the keywords, and allows you to browse the ontology and display only papers containing specific GO terms. After performing a search, the resulting abstracts are annotated with your query keywords and GO terms. The abstracts are grouped using the GO terms, which appear in the text. Now you can use the GO hierarchy to systematically explore your search results. ... [Information of the supplier]
