Embase resources

There are three options, and all give you full access to the biomedical literature in Embase. Search over 44 million records from a total of more than 8,200 journals. This includes 99% of MEDLINE journals, and 3,000 journals and 4.7 million conference abstracts not in MEDLINE.

With a full, annual subscription, which is IP-based access for multiple users, you get access to all the features and content of Embase. This includes an unlimited number of automated email alerts and the full range of data export possibilities. Contact sales to discuss pricing.

With the 7-day plan, which is for individual use, the email alert function is not active. With the 30-day plan, which is also for individual use, you can create up to 5 automated email alerts.

Yes. Your access to search forms and database browsing options is the same for all three options.

For a simple search on a particular term, use Quick Search. For a more complex search with more filters and limits, you can search by: Advanced, Drug, Disease, Device and Article.

You can also browse the database using the Embase thesaurus Emtree or the Embase journal or author lists. Browsing is a very useful way of discovering information that you might not have realized you could access. Help in Embase has a variety of guides and videos to help get you started.

You will receive two emails. One is an order confirmation with your purchase information. The other will have your registration ID and password and the instructions for registering your Embase account.

It is possible that Elsevier is not on your safe senders list and any response sent by Elsevier is automatically directed to this folder by your email system. If the email has been delivered here, you can add the relevant Elsevier email address(es) to your address book and/or add Elsevier to your safe senders list, so that all future correspondence from us will be directed straight to your inbox.

If the email from Elsevier is not in your Junk or Spam folder or you have any further questions, please contact us.

If the registration ID has NOT been redeemed and Embase has NOT yet been accessed, then it is possible to refund the order. Prior to confirmation of the purchase, customers are prompted to carefully check their order as Elsevier cannot offer refunds based on mistakes made in the order.
