NEW ZEALAND INVENTORY OF CHEMICALS (NZIoC)


To search the database, enter either the:
     CAS Number or
     Name/ Synonym
of a substance into the search engine. All CAS numbers and names on the NZIoC have been verified by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) of the American Chemical Society.

Search Tips
The database allows wildcard searching – the ability to replace letters/numbers with a symbol. In the database search screen ‘%’ is the wildcard symbol. For example to find all substances that have ‘sodium’ at the start of their name, you would enter sodium%. Or to find all substances that have ‘sodium’ within their name, you would enter %sodium%.
As there are only a limited number of chemical synonyms in the database, searching via the CAS number is the most effective search method
