A comprehensive search system for the bioscience databases is in progress. We constructed a search service, Life science database cross search system (https://biosciencedbc.jp/dbsearch/index.php?lang=en) by integrating numerous biomedical databases using database crawling algorithms. The described system integrates 600 databases containing over 90 million entries indexed for biomedical research and development.
