Hippuryl-His-Leu

Chemical Properties

white fine crystalline powder

Uses

Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH is a substrate for detecting the activity of angiotensin I converting enzyme. The His-Leu released by Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH can react with o-phtbaldialdehyde or Fluorescamine (HY-D0715) for fluorescence detection[1][2][3].
