Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 56889-16-8 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 5,6,8,8 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 6 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 56889-16:
(7*5)+(6*6)+(5*8)+(4*8)+(3*9)+(2*1)+(1*6)=178
178 % 10 = 8
So 56889-16-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

As part of our anti-hepatitis C program, we recently discovered 2′-C-methylcytidine (1) and 2′-C-methyluridine (2), which are potent inhibitors in cell culture of several viruses (bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), yellow fever virus (YFV)) closely relat
