Alkali Scientific p Nitrophenyl a L fucopyranoside, 1 G

Supplier: Alkali Scientific PHE002CP
p-Nitrophenyl α-L-fucopyranoside, available in 1g quantity, is a specialized chemical reagent used in the analysis of carbohydrate structures and enzyme activity. This compound is primarily employed in enzyme assays to study α-L-fucosidases, enzymes responsible for the hydrolysis of fucosidic linkages in glycoproteins. It serves as a substrate that undergoes hydrolysis, producing p-nitrophenol, which can be easily quantified spectrophotometrically. This reagent is crucial for researching metabolic pathways involving fucose, an important sugar in biological processes such as cell recognition and immune response.
