Descripción

4-Nitrophenyl b-D-cellotetraoside is a chromogenic substrate utilized for the detection and quantification of cellulase enzyme activity. Cellulase enzymes hydrolyze the beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds of cellulose, a major component of plant cell walls. Upon cleavage by cellulase, it releases 4-nitrophenol, a compound that exhibits a yellow color and absorbs strongly at 405 nm, allowing for easy spectrophotometric measurements of cellulase activity levels in various sample types, including bacterial and fungal cultures, environmental samples, and industrial applications.
