Gamma-carotene, also known as prolycopene, is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment found in fruits and vegetables, particularly in tomatoes and watermelons. It is an isomer of alpha-carotene and beta-carotene, which are more commonly known for their provitamin A activity. Gamma-carotene does not possess provitamin A activity, as it cannot be converted into vitamin A. However, it has been studied for its potential antioxidant properties and its role in quenching singlet oxygen, which may contribute to its health benefits. Research is ongoing to understand its full range of biological activities and potential health implications.

5564-54-5 Usage
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 5564-54-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 5,5,6 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 5 and 4 respectively.Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 5564-54:
(6*5)+(5*5)+(4*6)+(3*4)+(2*5)+(1*4)=105
105 % 10 = 5
So 5564-54-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
