To find the PubMed number, please use FBS search module. Place the manuscript number in the qeury box to retrieve the PubMed number

DOI number of each manuscript is the prefix "10.2741/" followed by the manuscript number. For example, the DOI number of the manuscript 2044 will be 10.2741/2044. You can search for the DOI numbers using the search module of CrossRef. For example, placement of the following citation [Manuel Alvarez-Dolado. Cell Fusion: biological perspectives and potential for regenerative medicine. Frontiers in Bioscience 12, 1-12, January 1, 2007] will retrieve the respective DOI number as follows

Manuel Alvarez-Dolado. Cell Fusion: biological perspectives and potential for regenerative medicine. Frontiers in Bioscience 12, 1-12, January 1, 2007
doi:10.2741/2044

Clicking the link will retrieve the article.

You can also retrieve the DOI numbers of a collection of references by pasting all the references into the query box at the same time.

You can view the manuscripts presented in the "Frontiers in Bioscience" prepared as a portable document format (PDF). Adobe's PDF files are formatted for viewing and printing manuscripts. PDF files are cross platform compatible and can be viewed or printed in Windows, Macs and Unix machines. PDF documents offer distinct advantages over the standard HTML documents when viewed or printed. Documents created as PDF can either be viewed on-line, or downloaded to a local hard drive without having to maintain an active Web connection. The PDF document format more closely resembles the format of a book, with actual page separations, rich magazine-style page layout, bookmarking capability and zoom features.
