Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5440-51-7 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,4,4 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5440-51:
(6*5)+(5*4)+(4*4)+(3*0)+(2*5)+(1*1)=77
77 % 10 = 7
So 5440-51-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Lipophilic Cyclic Hexapeptide for Calcium Ion-Selective-Electrode
Nishino, Norikazu,Shiroishi, Takanobu,Muraoka, Taito,Fujimoto, Tsutomu
, p. 665 - 668 (2007/10/02)
The cyclic hexapeptides containing artificial and lipophilic amino acid, α-aminomyristic acid were designed.The poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane electrode based on a cyclic hexapeptide exhibited high calcium ion selectivity over sodium and potassium ions.
