5-Bromo-3-indolyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties
White to off-white powder
Uses
5-Bromo-3-indolyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside is a substrate for beta-galactosidase that is converted, by the enzyme, into an insoluble indigoblue chromophore. It is also used in Lac gene detection systems, in immunoblotting and immunocytochemical assays.
Uses
5-Bromo-3-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside is an α-galactosidase substrate which is converted to an insoluble indigo-blue chromophore darker than that released by X-GAL. It is ideal for Lac gene detection systems in immunoblotting, immunocytochemical, and histological applications. Also used as chromogenic substrate that is suitable for identification of lac-(+) bacterial colonies.
