Product Information

• Name: 4-Nitrophenyl 2-acetamido-6-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-O-(b-D-galactopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-a-D-galactopyranoside
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-Nitrophenyl 2-acetamido-6-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-O-(b-D-galactopyranosyl)-2-deoxy-a-D-galactopyranoside is a specific chromogenic substrate designed for the highly sensitive and accurate detection of glycosidase enzyme activity. Glycosidases are responsible for the cleavage of glycosidic bonds between saccharide units in various carbohydrates. The hydrolysis of this substrate by glycosidase enzymes produces 4-nitrophenol, a yellow-colored compound that can be easily monitored through spectrophotometric measurements due to its strong absorbance at 405 nm. This chromogenic substrate is widely used in the analysis of glycosidase activity in various biological samples, including bacterial, fungal, and plant tissues, as well as in environmental samples and biotechnological applications.
