Review of Medical and Veterinary Mycology

Overview

Review of Medical and Veterinary Mycology is a fully searchable abstracts database of internationally published research on medical and veterinary mycology.

Selected from the applied life sciences database CAB Abstracts, it contains the latest information on fungi and actinomycetes of medical and veterinary importance, including clinical research, case reports, pathology, diagnosis, treatment, immunology and laboratory studies of the fungi themselves. Coverage includes all mycoses as well as allergies, mycotoxins and poisoning, and antifungal agents.
 
 

Each week RMVM delivers online all the latest searchable summaries covering key English and non-English language journal articles, reports, conferences and books about medical and veterinary mycology.

Created and indexed by subject specialists, RMVM provides access to these abstracts using comprehensive indexing and classification codes. The database includes a fully searchable backfile to 1973 of over 135,000 abstracts with approximately 5,000 new records added each year.

RMVM is also available in printed form as a quarterly journal with author, subject and serials cited indexes.
