Product Information

• Name: 2-Amino-5-nitrobenzoic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Amino-5-nitrobenzoic acid is a plant metabolite that contains a nitro group. It has been found to be an effective inhibitor of glutamate dehydrogenase, one of the enzymes involved in the metabolism of amino acids. 2-Amino-5-nitrobenzoic acid has also been shown to have no effect on other enzyme activities such as amines and nitrosamines. This natural product has been shown to be useful as a model system for understanding how hydrochloric acid interacts with plants, by inhibiting their growth.
