X-gluc (CHX salt)
X-Gluc is a chromogenic substrate for beta-glucuronidase (GUS) which is encoded by the gusA (uid A) gene, a widely used reporter gene. Glucuronidase cleaves X-Gluc to produce colorless glucuronic acid and an intense blue precipitate. X-Gluc is often used in GUS staining of plant cells and tissue and in infections caused byE. coli.Product Specifications: (X-glu, X-glcA, BCIG) 5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide cyclohexylammonium saltMOLECULAR BIOLOGY GRADEFormula: C14H13BrClNO7• C6H13NMW: 521.79 g/mol
