Pharmacology
MeSH Pharmacological Classification
Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed, p301, p499)

Applications
Uses4-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde is used to prepare colorful Schiff base adducts with amines, pyrroles and indoles. It is often used in the Ehrlich reaction, test for the presence of indoles in a sample containing alkaloids and determination of hydrazine.
UsesIn the presence of oxygen, some bacteria, like E.coli, are able to split tryptophan into indole and alpha-aminopropionic acid. This reagent is for detecting the indole and identify the indole-positive and indole-negative microorganisms.
UsesForms colored condensation products (Schiff bases) with pyrroles1 and primary amines.2
