Life Sciences Identifier (LSID) Resolver

Resolve a LSID and return metadata as RDF as JSON-LD, N-Triples, and RDF/XML.

To retrieve RDF directly, use either content negotiation or append the required file extension to the LSID (e.g., /urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidersp:021946.jsonld returns RDF for the LSID urn:lsid:nmbe.ch:spidersp:021946 in JSON-LD format).
