Informations sur le produit

• Nom: α-Chlorocinnamaldehyde
• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: α-Chlorocinnamaldehyde is a nucleophilic compound that is used as a reagent in the determination of free phenols and carboxylic acids in foods. α-Chlorocinnamaldehyde reacts with the carboxyl group of aldehydes or ketones to form a Schiff base, which is then hydrolyzed by acid to produce a colored compound. The reaction is most efficient at pH 1-2 and near room temperature. This method can be used to detect β-unsaturated aldehydes in foods, such as trans-cinnamic acid (trans-ddp) and cis-cinnamic acid (cis-ddp).The reaction between α-chlorocinnamaldehyde and tyrosinase has been shown to inhibit the enzyme's activity. The uptake of α-chlorocinnamaldehyde into cells has also been determined using radioactive labeling techniques.
