Synthesis of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (ALA) and Its t-Butyl Ester for the Fluorescence Detection of Early Cancer

  • 발행 : 2005.10.01

초록

5-Aminolevulinic acid and its derivatives, which are known to affect the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, have been synthesized. Simple methods for the synthesis of 5-aminole-vulinic acid (ALA), a precursor of porphyrins, have been developed in our laboratory for use in studies on the biosynthesis of porphyrins.
