Aldol® 518 alpha-D-glucopyranoside is a fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of alpha-D-glucosidase activity. The colorless enzyme substrate is cleaved by alpha-D-glucosidase, generating red fluorescent signal and in some conditions, an orange colour in the visible spectrum can get formed, staining bacterial colonies in faint orange coloration. Aldol® 518 alpha-D-glucopyranoside can be used under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

Calcium 2-naphthylphosphate, which is the calcim salt of 2-naphthylphosphate, is a chromogenic substrate to measure alkaline phosphatase activity. After enzymatic cleavage, the product yielded (2-naphthol) generates a red-colored complex upon reaction with a diazonium salt like Fast Blue RR or Fast Garnet GBC.

Aldol® 515 caprylate is a chromogenic and fluorogenic enzyme substrate used for detection of lipase activity. The colorless enzyme substrate is cleaved by C8 esterases, yielding development of red coloration. In addition, red fluorescence is generated when Aldol® 355 fluorescence enhancer or a suitable matrix is present. Aldol® 515 caprylate can be used in enzyme assays and live bacterial cultures. Aldol® 515 caprylate is suitable for use in liquid and solid media, under aerobic as well as anaerobic conditions.

6-Chloro-3-indolyl butyrate is a chromogenic substrate for lipases. Use in lipid digestion and metabolism studies, it produces a salmon-pink color when 6-chloro-3-indolyl is released after enzymatic cleavage.
