EES expert system for complex equilibria II. MLHAQ. A database for equilibrium constants estimated through computer programs

MLHAQ, a relational database for equilibrium constants estimated by compute r programs, is a component of the expertnet (CEES) in complex equilibria. K AS, developed in dBase III+, is a fast retrieval software for several user- chosen queries through pop-down menus. Some of the typical search options a vailable are on metal, ligand, stoichiometry, computer program and specific system The present version of the database contains around 2000 records fo r 445 ligands and 45 metal ions classified into biologically essential, tox ic, medicinally useful etc. The literature citation of the data and experim ental contents are stored in two databases MLHLIT and MLHPRO.
