- (6R,7R)-7-[[(E)-4-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-2-thiophen-2-ylbut-3-enoyl]amino]-8-oxo-5-thia-1-azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid
Stability Hygroscopic, Unstable in Solution
Applications Nitrocefin is a chromogenic β-lactamase substrate that undergoes colour change from yellow to red as the amide bond in the β-Lactam ring is hydrolyzed by β-lactamase. Nitrocefin undergoes colour changes induced by lactamases produced by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Several studies have utilized the colour changing properties of Nitrocefin for the detection of β-lactamase activity from bacterial cell extracts by isoelectric focusing and spectroscopy. Nitrocefin has also been used in studies involving β-lactamase resistant antibiotics.
Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package
