The Uses of 5-BROMO-4-CHLORO-3-INDOLYL B-D-

Suitable for use in selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac⁺ phenotype.
X-GlcA has been used in histochemical staining of root sections for light microscopic observation.

What are the applications of Application

XGLUC Cyclohexylammonium Salt is a chromogenic substrate for β-glucuronidase gene detection

General Description

X-GlcA is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase, used to determine the presence or absence of a cloned DNA insert in bacteria growing on agar plates. X-GlcA is designed to replace X-Gal in blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-glucuronide sodium salt (X-GlcA) is a colorless substrate. The pre-immobilized X-GlcA can be converted by β-glucuronidase enzyme, synthesised by?Escherichia coli.
