<p>4-Chloro-1-naphthol is a chemical compound that has been used in clinical pathology to identify human immunoglobulin. It is also used as a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. 4-Chloro-1-naphthol binds to the amyloid fibrils and has anti-angiogenic effects in the hippocampus, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the formation of new blood vessels. This chemical compound can be used as a substrate molecule for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and is used in wastewater treatment.</p>

<p>Bronze-Gal (Bronze-beta-D-galactopyranoside) is a chromogenic indicator for beta-galactosidase activity. The colorless product is cleaved by lactose-utilizing bacteria in liquid media or on agar plates and yields a bronze colored precipitate. Bronze-Gal can also be used as detecting agent for beta-galactosidase activity in reporter gene assays or for identification of positive transformants on agar plates when using the α-complementation approach.

<p>Aldol® 515 nonanoate hydrochloride is a chromogenic and fluorogenic enzyme substrate for detection of lipase activity. The colorless product is cleaved by C9 esterases produced by bacteria in liquid or solid media, yielding a red color and red fluorescence when Aldol® 355 fluorescence enhancer or a suitable matrix is present. Aldol® 515 nonanoate can be used under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Well detectable color/fluorescence of bacterial colonies or liquid cultures is obtained within 24-48 h. In the presence of a purified lipase, color and fluorescence develops within minutes to few hours.</p>

<p>4-Nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside is a fluorescent probe that can be used in the study of the biochemical properties of enzymes. This compound binds to the enzyme's active site, which allows for transfer reactions to occur. 4-Nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside is an artificial substrate that is biochemically inert and has a similar physical structure to natural substrates. It can be used as a model system to study enzymatic reactions and has been shown to have pharmacokinetic properties and a pH optimum. The detection sensitivity of this compound is high, making it ideal for use in biochemical studies.</p>

<p>Aldol® 518 alpha-D-glucopyranoside is a fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of alpha-D-glucosidase activity. The colorless enzyme substrate is cleaved by alpha-D-glucosidase, generating red fluorescent signal and in some conditions, an orange colour in the visible spectrum can get formed, staining bacterial colonies in faint orange coloration. Aldol® 518 alpha-D-glucopyranoside can be used under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.</p>

<p>Chromogenic substrate for alpha-glucosidase</p>

<p>Aldol® 467 N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide is a chromogenic and fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of beta-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase activity. The colorless enzyme substrate is cleaved in the presence of beta-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase yielding development of a yellow product. In addition, green fluorescence is generated when a suitable matrix or Aldol® 355 fluorescence enhancer is present. Aldol® 467 N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide amide can be used in enzymatic assays or in live bacterial cultures. Aldol® 467 N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide is suitable for use in liquid and solid media, under aerobic as well as anaerobic conditions.</p>

<p>5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-a-D-xylopyranoside is a fluorogenic substrate that can be used in food testing and environmental testing. This product is a conjugate of the xylosidase enzyme (EC 3.2.1.37) with 5-bromo-4-chloroindoxyl, which has been shown to have a high affinity for the enzyme's active site and enzymatic activity. The purity of this product is &gt; 95% and the CAS number is 68618-41-5.</p>
