Description

2-Naphthyl b-D-glucopyranoside monohydrate is a potent inhibitor of beta-glucosidase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucose to produce glucose and D-glucose. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria in vitro, but does not have any effect on the growth of fungi. 2-Naphthyl b-D-glucopyranoside monohydrate has been used in assays for measuring the affinity for polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzopyrene. It also inhibits other enzymes, such as beta-lactamase, which is a penicillinase enzyme found in some bacteria.
