Enzyme Substrates

2-Amino-5-pyridyl 2-acetamido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-a-D-galactopyranose is a chromogenic substrate for the enzyme β galactosidase. It is used to detect the presence of β galactosidase in bacterial cultures. The substrate is soluble in water and has a long shelf life. 2APAAG can be used for food testing and environmental testing as it produces a bioluminescent signal when cleaved by β galactosidase.

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.

4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside-6-phosphate is a chromogenic substrate for glucose-6-phosphatase. Upon hydrolysis, para-nitrophenol is released yielding a yellowish colour. 4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-glucopyranoside-6-phosphate is used in different applications such as the Glycogen storage disease diagnosis (e.g., von Gierke disease)

Coelenterazine-v is a coelenterazine analog that emits a red fluorescent light in the presence of calcium (Ca2+). It is used as a reporter molecule for intracellular calcium concentration. Coelenterazine-v has been used in vitro to detect protein–protein interactions and in animal experiments to detect luciferase activity. Other coelenterazine-v analogs have also been developed with different color properties, including blue, green, yellow, orange, and purple. All these analogs, including coelenterazine-v, are used for optical imaging of cells or tissues or for detecting the activity of luciferases.

4-Methylumbelliferyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside 6-sulfate sodium salt is a fluorogenic substrate for sulfatase. After enzymatic cleaveage, free 4-methylumbelliferone (also known as hymecromone) is released, exhibiting blue fluorescence upon excitation with UV light. The strongest fluorescence of 4-methylumbelliferone requires deprotonation of the hydroxyl group (thus requires alkaline pH), with a maximal fluorescence intensity obtained with excitation at 350 to 370 nm and emission at 440 to 470 nm. The use of 4-methylumbelliferyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside 6-sulfate sodium saltas a substrate for measuring the sulfatase activity is used for Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) screening and other lysosomal storage disorder diagnosis.

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.

5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl choline phosphate is a synthetic enzyme substrate for detecting phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C.

AquaSpark® Calibration Probe is a water-soluble dioxetane-based chemiluminescent probe. Deprotonation of the free phenol group of the calibration probe under mild basic conditions results in an emissive decomposition process. No addition of enhancer or sensitizing agent is required to produce the bright green light emission in aqueous solutions.
AquaSpark® Calibration Probe is used for:

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.

Chemiluminescence substrate for C2-esterase (acetyl esterase)

Aldol® 455 beta-D-galactopyranoside is a chromogenic substrate for the enzyme β-galactosidase. It is used to detect the activity of β-galactosidase in cell culture, and has been shown to be highly purified and of high quality. This product can be used as a ligand for receptor binding studies or as an agent in enzyme substrates in fluorescence and chemiluminescence reactions.

Luc-coliforms is a food testing kit that can be used to test for coliforms. It is composed of a series of enzyme substrates, culture media, and ligands specific to the bacteria being tested. The kit uses chromogenic or fluorogenic substrates that react with coliforms to produce a color change in the reaction mixture. Luc-coliforms is designed for use on solid foods such as meat, eggs, and vegetables.

4-Nitrophenyl beta-rutinoside is a chromogenic substrate for beta-glucosidase. Upon hydrolysis, para-nitrophenol is released yielding a yellowish colour. 4-Nitrophenyl beta-rutinoside is used in different applications such as the Flavonoid glycoside hydrolysis, food industry applications

Fluorogenic substrate for cathepsin B or aminopeptidase III. Yields a blue fluorescent solution upon cleavage.

Chromogenic substrate for α-glucanase

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.
