Homovanillic Acid Sulfate Sodium Salt (CAS 38339-06-9)
QUICK LINKS
Homovanillic Acid Sulfate Sodium Salt is a water-soluble derivative of homovanillic acid, which is a major metabolite of the neurotransmitter dopamine. This compound is used in analytical studies to quantify dopamine levels in biological samples, such as urine or cerebrospinal fluid, using techniques like high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Its sulfate group enhances solubility, making it particularly useful in assays where the non-sulfated form may have solubility issues. Research utilizing Homovanillic Acid Sulfate Sodium Salt centers around neurochemical studies of dopamine metabolism, where it serves as a stable and reliable standard. These studies contribute to a better understanding of dopaminergic function in various neurological conditions. Additionally, the compound is utilized in environmental science research to trace the breakdown products of dopamine in wastewater and other aquatic systems.
