INDOLE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Indole is a colorless to pale yellow solid with a distinctive odor, used in various industrial and research applications. It is an important building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and perfumes. Indole is also a natural compound found in many plants and is produced by certain bacteria. Despite its utility, indole can be toxic and poses health hazards if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage in industrial and laboratory settings.
