When proteins are hydrolysed by means of trypsine, the proteolytic ferment of pancreatic juice, the digest at a certain period gives a rose colour on acidification and addition of bromine water. This reaction is due to the presence of another aromatic body, called tryptophane, which is a derivative of indol, being indol amino-propionic acid. ,.CHNH ,.COOH C,H, CH \ y NH Acted on by bacteria of putrefaction this body gives rise to indol and skatol, substances with a pronounced faecal odour and constantly produced in the putrefaction of proteins.
