Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (Standard)

Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (Standard) is the analytical standard of Indole-3-carboxaldehyde. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Indole-3-carboxaldehyde (3-Formylindole), a banlangen extract, is the product of the oxidative degradation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) by crude enzyme preparations from etiolated pea seedlings. Indole-3-carboxaldehyde is a biochemical used to prepare analogs of the indole phytoalexin cyclobrassinin. Indole-3-carboxaldehyde also enhances the epithelial barrier and anti-inflammatory activity in the intestinal tract[1][2].
