Indole-3-propionic acid is a reactant for preparation of fluorescent analogues of strigolactones, melanocortin receptors ligands, histamine H4 receptor agonists, and NR2B/NMDA receptor antagonists. It is also used as an important raw material and intermediate used in organic Synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuff. It is also used to Study as an adjunct to improve perfusion after liver transplant.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
