P nitrophenol α d glucopyranoside pnpg

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

P-nitrophenol α-D-glucopyranoside (PNPG) is a synthetic substrate used in enzymatic assays. It is a colorless compound that, when cleaved by the enzyme α-glucosidase, releases p-nitrophenol, a yellow-colored product that can be measured spectrophotometrically. This property makes PNPG a useful tool for the quantitative detection and analysis of α-glucosidase activity.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
