IAA | indole-3-acetic acid (N1) (for immunolocalization),Antibody can be used for direct detection of free IAA (see reference below) Antibody is provided in 50% glycerol. For larger quantity (1 mg)- please inquire. Steedman's wax embedding technique is recommended to be used with this antibody. The most critical issue is to keep the temperature below 37°C during the whole embedding procedure. More information can be found in Vitha et al. (2000).
Indoleacetic acid (IAA) is the main growth hormone of higher plants. This hormone is produced in the cells at the tip of the plant and in young leaves. Plant cells synthesize IAA from tryptophan. The different effects of auxin include: inducing cell elongation and cell division, and subsequent effects on plant growth and development.
