Protein adducts for exposure monitoring: A computerized data base. Software and user's manual

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5240677
The user's manual contains directions for the installation and use of the computerized Protein Adducts Database (CPAD). Most of the documentation is also available on-screen in the form of CPAD's Readme files and program prompts. CPAD, a user-friendly, menu-driven, stand-alone DBASE application, was created to provide an efficient means of updating and disseminating information on protein adducts relating to their utility as dosimeters of exposure to environmental contaminants, especially genotoxic and/or carcinogenic compounds. The structure of the database as well as its initial contents were derived primarily from the document, Protein Adduct-Forming Chemicals for Exposure Monitoring: Chemicals for Further Study (EPA/600/4-89/035). Software for executing CPAD accompany the User's Guide on a single high density 3.5 in. diskette. The diskette contains (1) two versions of CPAD that run with DBASE III PLUS and DBASE IV, version 1.1, respectively, (2) the DBRUN files needed to run CPAD as a stand-alone DBASE III PLUS application, (3) a copy of the User's Manual (a WORDPERFECT 5.0 document file) which may be viewed on screen or printed out, and (4) the source code and unlinked object code files used to develop CPAD's main program.
