CAS 207727-11-5: b-D-Galactopyranoside,6-fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl

6-Fluoro-3-indolyl b-D-galactopyranoside (6-FI-gal) is a chromogenic enzyme substrate often used in microbiology to detect the expression of beta-galactosidase in bacterial colonies. When hydrolyzed by beta-galactosidase, 6-FI-gal produces a blue-green precipitate, allowing for easy identification of colonies that express the enzyme.

6-Fluoro-3-indoxyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside is a fluorescent chromogenic substrate that is commonly used for the detection and quantification of beta-galactosidase activity. When this substrate is hydrolyzed by beta-galactosidase, it produces a fluorescent blue product that can be easily detected and measured using a fluorometer or spectrophotometer. This substrate is often used in microbiology and molecular biology research to study gene expression and enzyme kinetics, and is also used in medical diagnostics as a marker for specific diseases and conditions.
