Application

5-ALA(Cas No.: 5451-09-2) can be used as naturally occurring amino acid and precursor of tetrapyrroles in the biosynthesis of chlorophyll and heme. It can also be used as antineoplastic (photosensitizer).

5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is a key precursor in the biosynthesis of porphyrins, such as chlorophyll and heme, and may aid in the bioremediation of such contamination.The growth benefits of ALA may be due to its stimulation of photosynthesis. Low ALA concentrations (i.e. 0.18 - 0.6 mM) have a variety of beneficial physiological effects to plants, including improved chlorophyll synthesis, photosynthetic activity, growth rates, respiration efficiency, and growth regulation
