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

<p>Espresso-Gal (Espresso-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 an espresso brown colored precipitate. Espresso-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>4-Nitrophenyl phosphate bis(cyclohexylammonium) is an excellent chromogenic substrate designed for the detection and quantification of phosphatase enzyme activities. Aided by the presence of the cyclohexylammonium cation, it undergoes enzymatic hydrolysis, yielding the colored 4-nitrophenolate ion, which can be readily observed at 405 nm. The substrate has become an essential tool for biomedical research, playing a crucial role in unearthing cellular mechanisms, function, and potential drug targets.</p>

<p>5-Amino-3-indoxyl-b-D-galactopyranoside is a chromogenic substrate for the enzyme galactosidase. 5-Amino-3-indoxyl-b-D-galactopyranoside is used in diagnostic tests to identify the presence of lactose intolerance. It can also be used to detect traces of blood in food, water, and other substances. This product has a high purity that makes it suitable for conjugation applications.</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>5-Iodo-3-indolyl b-D-galactopyranoside is a chromogenic substrate used for beta-galactosidase. It is incorporated into media or detection kits for rapid and direct identification of microorganisms.</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>

<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>
