5-BROMO-3-INDOXYL-BETA-D-GLUCURONIC ACID CYCLOHEXYLAMMONIUM SALT

Description:
5-Bromo-3-indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronic acid cyclohexylammonium salt is a chemical compound that serves primarily as a substrate for the detection of β-glucuronidase activity in various biological assays. This compound features a brominated indoxyl moiety, which is crucial for its chromogenic properties, allowing for visual detection upon enzymatic hydrolysis. The glucuronic acid component enhances its solubility and stability in aqueous environments, making it suitable for use in biological systems. The cyclohexylammonium salt form improves its solubility and bioavailability. This compound is typically utilized in microbiological studies, particularly in the identification of certain bacteria that produce β-glucuronidase, which can cleave the glucuronic acid moiety, releasing a colored indoxyl derivative. Its characteristics include being a white to off-white solid, with a specific melting point range and solubility in organic solvents. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical, to ensure proper laboratory practices are followed.
