M0257 - Carboxyumbelliferyl β-D-galactopyranoside (CUG)

(High Purity-Molecular Biology Grade)

M0257
 

CAS Number: 64664-99-9

Description:
Blue fluorogenic beta-galactosidase substrate that is well retained intracellularly. The fluorescence spectrum for the released 3-carboxyumbelliferone is pH-dependent.

Application:
Below the pKa (7.8), Abs. shifts to shorter wavelengths (325 to 340 nm) and fluorescence intensity decreases. These shifts may be used to measure compartmentalization of intracellular activity.

Note:
Em = 445nm, ε = 32K is emission of fluorophore 3-carboxyumbelliferone released upon beta-galactosidase enzyme activity.
