5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-alpha-D-xylopyranoside is an enzyme substrate that can be used in the detection of β-galactosidase activity. This product has been shown to be a good ligand for various xanthine oxidoreductases, including xanthine dehydrogenase and uricase. 5BBIX is also a chromogenic substrate for horseradish peroxidase and can be used to detect hydrogen peroxide in the presence of osmium tetroxide or potassium permanganate. 5BBIX has been extensively tested for use in diagnostics, food, and environmental testing.

4-Nitrophenyl trimethylacetate is a cytosolic proteinase inhibitor. It binds to the active site of trypsin and other enzymes that hydrolyze peptide bonds, thereby inhibiting the activity of these enzymes. 4-Nitrophenyl trimethylacetate has been shown to inhibit soybean trypsin, which has led to its use as a model system for studying enzyme inhibition. The binding site on 4-Nitrophenyl trimethylacetate is competitive with respect to substrate binding but not with respect to the enzyme's catalytic triad. This inhibitor also has a high buffer capacity and can be used in low pH systems.

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.

Modified naphtol AS substrate used in histochemical and cytochemical staining

4-Nitrophenyl beta-galactoside (pNP-Gal) is a chromogenic substrate commonly used in enzymatic assays to detect and quantify the presence of beta-galactosidase. It is hydrolyzed by the enzyme to release 4-nitrophenol, which produces a yellow color that can be measured spectrophotometrically. Similarly, 4-Nitrophenyl beta-glucoside (pNP-Glc) can be used to assay beta-glucosidase activity. 4-Nitrophenyl beta-globotrioside (pNP-Glo) is a similar compound that has been designed as a substrate for glycosidases that cleave terminal beta-galactosyl-(1->3)-N-acetylgalactosamine residues. In these assays, the release of 4-nitrophenol can be measured to determine the activity of the enzyme under study. The use of chromogenic substrates like pNP-Glo allows for the rapid and reliable detection of glycosidase activity in a variety of biological samples.

1-Naphthyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside is a chromogenic substrate. It is used in diagnostics and as a reagent for enzymatic analysis of alpha-mannosidase activity in culture media, food testing, and environmental testing.

4-Nitrophenyl alpha-D-maltotetraoside is a chromogenic substrate used for the detection of alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase activity. The four glucose units in the molecule are hydrolyzed by the enzyme, releasing 4-nitrophenol and allowing for easy colorimetric measurement of enzymatic activity

4-Nitrophenyl-myo-inositol-1-yl phosphate is a highly specific chromogenic substrate used for the detection, quantification, and characterization of phosphoinositide phosphatases. When cleaved by the target enzyme, it generates a highly absorbing 4-nitrophenyl moiety, producing a yellow color that can be measured spectrophotometrically. This versatile substrate is valuable in examining phosphoinositide phosphatase activity, enzyme kinetics, substrate specificity, and inhibition studies in various cellular processes, including signal transduction, lipid metabolism, and membrane trafficking.
