Medchemexpress LLC 5-Bromo-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside | 97753-82-7 | 99.7% | 374.18 | 100 MG
5-Bromo-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside (Bluo-Gal) is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase. Upon enzymatic hydrolysis, it forms an insoluble blue precipitate, enabling specific identification of bacterial β-galactosidases (e.g., *E. coli*'s lacZ gene) at pH 7.4. It is useful for light and electron microscopy, and histochemical detection of reporter gene expression in transgenic organisms for β-galactosidase activity localization.
- Chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase
- Produces an insoluble blue precipitate upon hydrolysis
- Enables specific recognition of bacterial β-galactosidases
- Effective at pH 7.4
- Suitable for light and electron microscopic observations
- Useful for histochemical detection of reporter gene expression
- Applicable for localization analysis of β-galactosidase activity in transgenic organisms

5-Bromo-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside (Bluo-Gal) is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase. It is hydrolyzed by the enzyme to generate a 5-bromoindole intermediate, which then oxidizes to form an insoluble blue precipitate. It specifically recognizes bacterial β-galactosidases, such as the product of the *Escherichia coli lacZ* gene, and reacts at pH 7.4. This makes it suitable for light and electron microscopic observations and for histochemical detection of reporter gene expression in transgenic organisms.
- Suitable for localization analysis of β-galactosidase activity in mouse embryos or muscle tissues.
- The 5-bromoindigo precipitate is a birefringent needle-shaped crystal.
- Easier to identify under a low-power microscope than X-Gal.
- Resistant to elution by organic solvents.
