Benzamide, 98+%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

Benzamide is utilized to study the mechanism of photocatalytic decomposition of aqueous solution of acetic acid, acetamide and acetonitrile in the presence of semiconductors. It is used as a nictoinamide-mimic PARP inhibitor and neuroprotectant. Further, it is used to develop a robust screening method to study biotransformations using (+)-gamma-lactamase enzyme. It is also employed in the determination of glycine. In addition to this, it is used as an intermediate in organic synthesis as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals and dyes.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
