Still using the legacy book version of the Volatile Compounds in Food database?

Are you still using the book version of our database Volatile Compounds in Food (Editor Henk Maarse, edition 1996)? Or perhaps you are using the obsolete VCF 2000 version on CD.

Since 2002 our database is available via Internet at www.vcf-online.nl and now has version 11.1.1

On this site a demo version can be consulted. With the demo version only a limited amount of information can be obtained. Upon request we can give you a guest account with full functionality for a limited period.

Compared to the book or CD version, the Internet version is changed substantially:

• Many new products, new compounds and additional synonyms
• Products are aggregated into product categories
• Many new search entries, such as CAS and FEMA numbers
• Partial name search and search within results
• Product compare functions
• Complete FEMA and Council of Europe lists
• Regular updates of products and addition of new products

The cost for subscription amounts 1000 Euro per year. All staff on one location of a company can get access without further costs. Each user obtains a personal user name and password. (Upon request, access can be obtained also on the basis of IP addresses).

Subscribe by using the form which can be found in the left column menu section.

Is your colleague also interested? Please, forward her or him this message.

We hope to be able to welcome you on our Internet site soon!

Sincerely yours,

The editors:
