Informations sur le produit

• Nom: 4-Methylumbelliferyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-a-D-glucopyranoside
• Synonymes: 4-Methylumbelliferyl N-acetyl-a-D-glucosaminide4MU-a-GlcNAc
• Marque: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Methylumbelliferyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranoside is a fluorogenic substrate for alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase. 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 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosideas a substrate for measuring the alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity is used for Sanfilippo syndrome B screening and mucopolysaccharidosis diagnosis.
