Description

5-Bromo-6-chloro-3-indoxyl-alpha-D-galactopyranoside is a fluorogenic substrate that can be used for the detection of enzyme activity. This substrate reacts with an enzyme to produce a product that emits light when excited by a laser. 5BClGALP has been shown to be useful in detecting the activity of enzymes such as beta-galactosidase, alpha-galactosidase, and beta-glucuronidase. As a result, this substrate is important for diagnostics, including bioluminescence testing, environmental testing, and food testing. 5BClGALP also has applications in chemistry and biochemistry research as an enzyme substrate or ligand in assays.
