Exercise 2: Browsing with the eNanoMapper ontology

Browsing nanosafety data with the eNanoMapper data platform

One reason why identifiers are central to FAIR data is that they make data findable, the first aspect of FAIR. This exercise will demonstrate how eNanoMapper ontology identifiers, if used by other resources, can be used to find information.

Therefore, in this exercise, we will use an ontology identifier (or, the local part of it), to find nanosafety data for a nanomaterial in the public eNanoMapper and NANoREG data platforms.

So, we start with the ontology term code for the nanomaterial we looked up in Exercise 2, ENM_9000074.

eNanoMapper

This part is about the original eNanoMapper database instance, set up by the eNanoMapper project.

Step 1: Visit https://data.enanomapper.net/
Step 2: Search ENM_9000074

Questions

How many entries are found when searching with this ontology term? One
And what if we search for the more general NPO_1486 for titanium oxide nanoparticle? This finds 80 nanomaterials.
And how many for ENM_9000080?

NANoREG

Step 1: Visit https://search.data.enanomapper.net/projects/nanoreg/
Step 2: Search ENM_9000074

Questions

How many entries are found when searching with this ontology term? Also one
And what if we search for the more general NPO_1486 for titanium oxide nanoparticle? This finds 7 nanomaterials.
