Unite data across sources

A single compound is represented in many ways, making it difficult to harmonize data across departments, systems, suppliers, and locations. CAS Registry Numbers (CAS RN), the global universal identifier, can standardize chemical names and structures, add synonyms, and unite data in your LIMS, ELNs, and other internal systems. Read the case study on how Improved Data Integrity Enhances R&D Efficiency.

Focus drug discovery

Access to diverse, high-quality data enables your models to identify and prioritize novel drug candidates more accurately. The CAS Content Collection includes SAR data, as well as biological data such as targets, ligands, and pharmacological properties. Better starting places enable your research efforts to be more focused, improving success and speed-to-market.
