5-HYDROXYINDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID( 5-HIAA )
Catalog No. M19623 CAS No. 54-16-0
5-Hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5HIAA) is a breakdown product of serotonin that is excreted in the urine. Serotonin and 5HIAA are produced in excess amounts by carcinoid tumors and levels of these substances may be measured in the urine to test for carcinoid tumors (NCI).
Purity : >98% (HPLC)
