4-Nitrophenyl β-D-Cellobioside, also known as p-Nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside, is a cellotriose analog. It can be hydrolyzed by β-glucosidases like TxGH116 and ThCel7B, as well as by exoglucanases and endoglucanases, to produce p-nitrophenol (PNP). This compound is utilized to detect cellulase activity.
