Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid is a chromogenic and fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of beta-glucuronidase activity. The living cells of Escherichia coli can be reliably detected in growth media containing Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid, as beta-glucuronidase occurs almost exclusively in E. coli. Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid can also be in GUS reporter assays. Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid can be used in liquid culture and solid media, and is suitable for use under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Upon exposure to active beta-glucuronidase, Aldol® 495 beta-D-glucuronic acid develops orange colour and green fluorescence.

A substrate for visualising alkaline phosphatase activity. Produces a red colored insoluble end product that is detected visually, when used together with nitroblue tetrazolium. The substrate system is versatile and functions in a variety of applications, including Northern, Southern, and Western blotting, in situ hybridization, ELISAs and immunohistochemistry. DMF soluble.

5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl b-D-fucopyranoside is a chromogenic substrate used is for the enzyme beta-fucosidase.

Bestatin (Ubenimex) competitively inhibits many aminopeptidases. Bestatin is a microbial metabolite and dipeptide with immunomodulatory and antitumor effects.
