Using the CHIMERA platform, 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Faculty and Staff can choose to enroll in the ChemShare program. ChemShare participants share inventory information with one another, and are provided the ability to search the participant pool for chemicals.

For those enrolled, ChemShare is a powerful tool for reducing expenses from the purchase of chemicals that might otherwise be available in a fellow participant's laboratory. It also assists in reducing cost associated with the disposal of excess chemicals.

Users can simply search for the chemical they need by name, chemical synonym, Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) number, manufacturer part number, and manufacturer. A list of available chemicals is returned with contact information for the laboratory owner to enable participants to get in contact with one another to request portions of the desired chemical. Both the Chemistry and Biology stockrooms are currently enrolled in the ChemShare program, facilitating easy access to information on available chemical stocks.
