Dopal (purity>80%)

• Description :

  Dopal (purity>80%) is an aldehyde that can be generated in Parkinson's disease by enzymatic degradation of dopamine. Dopal (purity>80%) can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), and triggers aggregation of α-synuclein. Dopal (purity>80%) elicits α-synuclein accumulation and hampers α-synuclein clearance in primary neurons[1][2].
