   Indican is a toxic metabolite derived from dietary proteins and tryptophan. In the intestine, proteins and tryptophan are converted to indole by tryptophanase-expressing organisms. In the liver, indole is hydroxylated to form indoxyl and indoxyl is sufated to produce indican.

   Feb 27, 2024 · Researchers in Denmark have engineered an enzyme that can convert indican, a molecule related to indigo, into blue dye for denim without toxic chemicals. This could reduce the environmental impact of jeans production by 92 percent, but more challenges remain.

7. People also ask

   How is indican produced?

   • Indican is an indole produced when bacteria in the intestine act on the amino acid, tryptophan. Most indoles are excreted in the feces. The remainder is absorbed, metabolized by the liver, and excreted as indicanin the urine. Indican normally appears in urine only at low levels, since it’s not normally produced in the cells of your body.

   Can Indican be made without toxic chemicals?

   • Researchers in Denmark have engineered an improved dyeing method that eliminates the need for harsh chemicals, instead using an enzyme for dyeing. This technology, outlined in a study published today in Nature Communications, could enable large-scale production and application of indican, a molecule related to indigo, without toxic chemicals.
