Produktinformation

• Name: 4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-cellohexaoside
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 4-Methylumbelliferyl beta-D-cellohexaoside is a fluorogenic substrate for cellulase. 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 beta-D-cellohexaosideas a substrate for measuring the cellulase activity is used for detecting bacterial infection and gut microbiome analysis.
