Easy to decompose in light and air, not resistant to storage. It is safe for people and animals. Soluble in hot water, ethanol, acetone, ether and ethyl acetate, slightly soluble in water, benzene and chloroform; stable in alkaline solution, soluble in a small amount of 95% alcohol when using pure product crystallization preparation, and then dissolved in water to the appropriate amount.

Use of 3-Indolylcarbinol

Used as plant growth stimulant and analytical reagent. Indole-3-Methanol, 3-indoleacetaldehyde, 3,3'-Diindolylmethane, ascorbic acid and other auxin exist naturally in nature. Tryptophan is the precursor of 3-indoleacetic acid biosynthesis in plants. The basic function of auxin is to regulate plant growth. It can not only promote growth, but also inhibit growth and organ building. Auxin not only exists in free state in plant cells, but also exists in bound auxin which can be firmly combined with biopolymers and other special substances, such as indoleacetyl asparagine, pentose indoleacetate and indoleacetylglucose. This may be a storage way of auxin in cells, and it is also an detoxification way to eliminate the toxicity of excessive auxin.
