Application

Indoxyl acetate:
  • has been used to prepare free indoxyl for fermentor feeds and for in vitro 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase inactivation assays
  • may be used as the potential substrate for the evaluation of carbonic anhydrases (CAs) esterase activity
  • may be used to prepare indoxyl acetate differential disk to evaluate the indoxyl acetate hydrolysis test for the differentiation of Campylobacter species

Biochem/physiol Actions

Indoxyl acetate (IA) can be used as a substrate to detect acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. It may also have the potential to be used as a suitable substrate for fast and easy detection of lipase activity.
