The complete reference of a BIOSIS record can contain a number of tables, codes and other information.

Major Concepts and Concept Codes are indexed subject headings. Super Taxa uses taxonomic terminology to describe the organisms studied; Taxa Notes are equivalent common terms. The data table also shows organism name(s) and variant names, and other information about the organism.

There may also be other useful fields:

• Chemicals covered in the document and their registration numbers are given in the Chemical Data table, if applicable.
• Components of organisms discussed by the author are included in the Parts and Structures data.
• Miscellaneous Descriptors are any terms used which don’t fit into another BIOSIS indexing field.
