Description: Common long-wavelength esterase substrate, useful in cell viability assays, or for high throughput screening of esterase activity in a live cell format.
Application: Resorufin acetate is also a substrate for sheep liver cytosolic aldehyde dehydrogenase (CAD) as well as for assay of chymotrypsin activity, where the absorbance of the product resorufin M0202 is several times more intense than that formed by the widely used p-nitrophenyl acetate.
