Product Information
| Description: | 5-Hydroxytryptophol is a mammalian serotonin metabolite that can be used as a sensitive biomarker for recent alcohol intake. 5-Hydroxytryptophol is formed by alcohol-induced changes in the serotonin metabolic pathway and is excreted in the urine as a glucuronic acid conjugate. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
