Description

Chlorophenol red b-D-galactopyranoside (CPRG) is an element used in biological studies as a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase. CPRG is a synthetic compound that can be used to measure the activity of the enzyme and to measure the activity of recombinant proteins. It has been used in polymerase chain reactions, as an enzyme substrate, and as a transistor capacitor in pixel displays. CPRG has also been shown to have genotoxic activity when exposed to radiation or other forms of protein damage.
