General description
Metabolite of norepinephrine.
Application
DL-3,4-Dihydroxymandelic acid was used in the simultaneous analysis of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymandelic acid and 4-hydroxy- 3-methoxyphenylacetic acid in urine. It was also used to study the changes in body temperature.

Pre-synaptic endings of the sympathetic nervous fibers control the metabolism of catecholamines, particularly inactivating norepinephrine after its neuronal recapture. The present study was carried out to investigate this segment of the metabolism of catecholamines through measurements of DHPG, DOMA and

A continuous spectrophotometric method for the rapid determination of diphenolase activity of tyrosinase is described. It uses 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid (DOMA) as the substrate of tyrosinase and measures the final product, 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (DOBA). The spectrum of this product shows a bathochromic

Mushroom tyrosinase, which is known to convert a variety of o-diphenols into o-benzoquinones, has been shown to catalyse an unusual oxidative decarboxylation of 3,4-dihydroxymandelic acid to 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde [Sugumaran (1986) Biochemistry 25, 4489-4492]. The mechanism of this reaction was re-investigated. Although

3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, Ecstasy) is excreted in human urine mainly as conjugates of its metabolites 3,4-dihydroxymethamphetamine (DHMA) and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxymethamphetamine (HMMA). The glucuronidation kinetics of HMMA showed high capacities, but also high K(m) values, unlikely to be reached after recreational user's doses.
