2,3-DIMERCAPTO-1-PROPANOL TRIBUTYRATE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

2,3-Dimercapto-1-propanol tributyrate is a thioester analog of triacylglycerol and has been used:

• in lipase inhibition assay during in vitro screening of medicinal plants as antidiabetics with glucosidase and lipase inhibitory activities
• in colorimetric microplate assay for lipase activity
• to analyze positional specificity of LipG (lipase-encoding gene) toward triacylglycerol by a simple continuous spectrophotometric method
