Screenshot of the CAS Common Chemistry database with information about caffeine ().. A CAS Registry Number [1] (also referred to as CAS RN [2] or informally CAS Number) is a unique identification number, assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) in the US to every chemical substance described in the open scientific literature, in order to index the substance in the CAS Registry.
Chemical Abstracts Service Building B in August 2009. Columbus, Ohio. STN (Scientific & Technical Information Network) International is operated jointly [4] by CAS and FIZ Karlsruhe, and is intended primarily for information professionals, using a command language interface.
CAS number C 10 H 16 N 2 O 8: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) 6381–92–6 C 12 H 22 O 11: sucrose: 57–50–1 C 18 H 29 O 3 S: sodium dodecyl benzenesulfonate: 2155–30–0 C 20 H 25 N 30: Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) 50–37–3 C 123 H 193 N 35 O 37: Common serum albumin (macromolecule) 9048–49–1 Ca(AlH 4) 2: calcium ...
In 1874, a group of American chemists gathered at the Joseph Priestley House to mark the 100th anniversary of Priestley's discovery of oxygen.Although there was an American scientific society at that time (the American Association for the Advancement of Science, founded in 1848), the growth of chemistry in the U.S. prompted those assembled to consider founding a new society that would focus ...
A number of available search modules are provided: The standard search allows querying for systematic names, trade names and synonyms and registry numbers; The advanced search allows interactive searching by chemical structure, chemical substructure, using also molecular formula and molecular weight range, CAS numbers, suppliers, etc. The ...
The three dimensional structure of the asymmetric ACS (RCSB PDB ID number: 1PG3) reveals that it is composed of two subunits. Each subunit is then composed primarily of two domains. The larger N-terminal domain is composed of 517 residues, while the smaller C-terminal domain is composed of 130 residues. [7]
CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society, is pleased to announce that it will contribute to the Wikipedia project. CAS will work with Wikipedia to help provide accurate CAS Registry Numbers ® for current substances listed in Wikiprojects-Chemicals section of the Wikipedia Chemistry Portal that are of widespread general public interest.
Some registration systems such as the CAS system make use of algorithms to generate unique hash codes to achieve the same objective. A key difference between a registration system and a simple chemical database is the ability to accurately represent that which is known, unknown, and partially known.
