Advanced linking and database validation capabilities.

Online linking

ORCiD

Merops cross-checks author details against ORCiD and can retrieve the ORCiD for inclusion in a document or content management system.

Crossref 10.1056/NEJMoa1113135

FundRef

Merops links grant numbers with funding bodies, which themselves can be linked to FundRef. Merops includes variant forms of the funding bodies, including abbreviate and translated versions.

Crossref Salary support for M.J.C. was provided by the National Science Foundation.

Reference linking

We continuously add new linking targets for references to not only establish a link, but to make corrections: for more information on corrections, see here.

Subject databases

Merops checks links in a wide range of subjects, including Genetics, biochemistry, taxonomy, health and medicine, earth sciences, physics, food and drink, and technology/engineering. Please contact us if you would like to add to our list.

As well as retrieving or hyperlinking cited links, Merops can alert on items that:

  • do not appear in the target database
  • appear in multiple databases
