CAS - Delivering The Most Complete and Effective Digital Information Environment
CAS is a team of scientists, creating and delivering the most complete and effective digital information environment for scientific research and discovery. CAS provides pathways to published research in the world's journal and patent literature--virtually everything relevant to chemistry plus a wealth of information in the life sciences and a wide range of other scientific disciplines--back to the beginning of the 20th century.
Since 1907, CAS has indexed and summarized chemistry-related articles from more than 40,000 scientific journals, in addition to patents, conference proceedings and other documents pertinent to chemistry, life sciences and many other fields. In total, abstracts for more than 25 million documents are accessible online through CAS.
Through the printed CA, CA on CD, STN, the CAS files distributed through licensed vendors, the SciFinder and SciFinder Scholar desktop research tools, and the STN Easy or STN on the Web services, data produced by CAS is accessible to virtually any scientific researcher worldwide in industry, governmental research institutions, and academia.
Substance identification is a special strength of CAS. It is widely known as the CAS Registry, the largest substance identification system in existence. When a chemical substance, newly encountered in the literature, is processed by CAS, its molecular structure diagram, systematic chemical name, molecular formula, and other identifying information are added to the Registry and it is assigned a unique CAS Registry Number. Registry now contains records for more than 30 million organic and inorganic substances and more than 58 million sequences.
CAS Registry Numbers are used in reference works, databases, and regulatory compliance documents by many organizations around the world to identify substances without the ambiguity of chemical nomenclature.
CAS is located in Columbus, Ohio and is a division of the American Chemical Society.
