Application
Adrenochrome has been used to study the effect of adrenochrome on coronary artery constriction in the rat heart.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Adrenochrome is an oxidation product of adrenaline. It has been implicated in cardiotoxicity. It is a short-lived cytotoxic molecule and is part of the leukocyte response used to kill bacteria. Adrenochrome is also suggested to exhibit psychotomimetic effects. It is used to determine superoxide dismutase activity.

The adrenaline test for enzymes is a colorimetric enzyme assay based on the quantification of periodate-sensitive reaction products such as 1,2-diols and 1,2-aminoalcohols by back-titration of the oxidant with adrenaline to produce adrenochrome as an easily detectable red product. The

Enantiopure sulfoxides are prevalent in drugs and are useful chiral auxiliaries in organic synthesis. The biocatalytic enantioselective oxidation of prochiral sulfides is a direct and economical approach for the synthesis of optically pure sulfoxides. The selection of suitable biocatalysts requires
