Application

Indoxyl acetate:
  • has been used to prepare free indoxyl for fermentor feeds and for in vitro 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) synthase inactivation assays
  • may be used as the potential substrate for the evaluation of carbonic anhydrases (CAs) esterase activity
  • may be used to prepare indoxyl acetate differential disk to evaluate the indoxyl acetate hydrolysis test for the differentiation of Campylobacter species

Biochem/physiol Actions

Indoxyl acetate (IA) can be used as a substrate to detect acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. It may also have the potential to be used as a suitable substrate for fast and easy detection of lipase activity.

Indoxyl acetate hydrolysis is a rapid, inexpensive differential test which can be performed easily to help identify campylobacter. A total of 571 Campylobacter cultures, including atypical variants, representing 10 species was tested.

The present study analyzed the prevalence and molecular characterization of Campylobacter at different processing steps in poultry slaughterhouses to determine where contamination mainly occurs. A total of 1,040 samples were collected at four different stages (preprocessing cloacal swabs, postevisceration, postwashing

Three Arcobacter isolates, recovered from mussels (genus Mytilus), and one isolate from brackish water in Catalonia (north-east Spain) showed a novel pattern using a recently described identification method for members of the genus Arcobacter, 16S rRNA gene RFLP. Enterobacterial repetitive
