Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid is a chromogenic and fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of beta-glucuronidase activity. The living cells of Escherichia coli can be reliably detected in growth media containing Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid, as beta-glucuronidase occurs almost exclusively in E. coli. Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid can also be in GUS reporter assays. Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid can be used in liquid culture and solid media, and is suitable for use under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Upon exposure to active beta-glucuronidase, Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid develops orange colour and green fluorescence.
