Nitrocefin
Nitrocefin is a chromogenic cephalosporin antibiotic widely used as a biochemical substrate for detecting β-lactamase activity. Its hydrolysis by both gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial lactamases makes it a key tool for in vitro antimicrobial resistance research and enzyme characterization studies.
