  "definition": "1. A completed document that provides objective evidence of an item or process. Records may include photographs, drawings, magnetic tape, and other data recording media.\n\n2. A group of data that represent a single case or occurrence, along with all dependent data. An emissions record would consist of all data within the Emissions component for a single pollutant.\n\n3. A CRD or SDF file consists of a number of records, usually one record per chemical structure or experiment. A record typically consists of a single structure field, followed by a number of data fields containing numerical and/or textual data pertaining to that structure. The total number of records in a CRD typically corresponds to the number of chemical structure entries in the database, although it is possible for the same structure to be replicated in multiple records, e.g. corresponding to different experiments of the same chemical, or different tested forms of the same chemical. More on CRDs (http://www.epa.gov/ncct/dsstox/MoreonCRDs.html).\n\n4. A document stating results achieved or providing evidence of activities performed. Note: May also be referred to as EMS Record or SHMS Record.",
