The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of 4-methylumbelliferyl glucopyranoside to 4-methylumbelliferone glucuronide. The production of 4 methylumbelliferone glucuronide can be quantified using fluorescence spectroscopy. This product can be used in research involving chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer.

AquaSpark® Peroxide Probe is a dioxetane-based substrate for the luminescence detection of hydrogen peroxide and other peroxides in biological samples. AquaSpark® Peroxide Probe is the most sensitive probe for H2O2 detection available. It is also an extremely versatile probe for oxidase detection applicable in a wide range of biocompatible buffers. For example it can be used for glucose oxidase detection andfor the quantitation of glucose levels (when coupled to the glucoseoxidase activity in an assay). In addition, AquaSpark® Peroxide Probe is used for the quantification of other biologically relevant compounds(e.g. amino acids) using the corresponding peroxide releasing oxidases.

5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl phosphate, p-toluidine salt - micronized is a chemiluminescent substrate used in diagnostic assays. It is an enzyme substrate that is commonly used to detect peroxidase activity and has been shown to be effective in detecting various types of bacteria. This product is a high quality chemical with a purity of at least 98% and has been tested for environmental safety. 5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl phosphate, p-toluidine salt - micronized can be used as a fluorogenic substrate for the detection of proteases and aminopeptidases.

5-Bromo-4-Chloro-3-Indolyl b-D-Mannopyranoside, also known as X-Man, is an enzyme substrate commonly used for detecting mannosidase enzymes. Upon hydrolysis by the enzyme, it produces a blue-green colored compound that can be detected visually or measured spectrophotometrically. This substrate is useful in characterizing the activity of mannosidases involved in glycoprotein processing and quality control.

Chromogenic substrate for beta-glucuronidase (GUS) yielding blue precipitate upon cleavage. Used for identification of beta-glucuronidase. X-beta-D-glucuronide has been reported as chromogenic substrate in a number of chromogenic E. coli/ coliform culture media. About 95% of common E. coli possess beta-D-glucuronidase activity. Such chromogenic culture media are used for detection and enumeration of E. coli in food samples such as meat, dairy products and shellfish and have clinical applications in the assessment of urinary infections. It has gained international acceptance as highly accurate test for the presence of E. coli in drinking water samples. It is also used for the detection of the expression of GUS (E. coli beta-glucuronidase) gene fusion marker constructs in plants. The sodium salt has advantages over the cyclohexylammonium salt as being non-electrostatic and possessing a naturally-occurring cation.

A fluorogenic substrate for the detection of lysosomal enzyme N-acetyl-α-D-galactopyranosiaminidase (NAGA), which is driving the pathogenesis of Schindler disease. Also substrate for endo-α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (O-glycosidase), which cleaves O-linked core 1 and core 3 disaccharides from glycoproteins.
